"Everything was fine, everybody was friendly at the eye doctor and I got in in a great amount of time. I mean, like it was fast. The only thing I'd say is I had my eyes dilated today and I didn't think to ask for them, but I thought afterwards that I should have got some of those sunglasses that the eye doctors give you when you get your eyes dilated, because once I got outside the sun was really hurting my eyes. But other than that, I was happy with everything. I'm happy with everything."
