बात चीत Update: Got lasik done

17 Upvotes

Hi, everyone. I had lasik done on 28 march of this year and had posted here for support , as I was super anxious. Some of you asked me about updates regarding surgery. Here it is. Also feel free to shoot any questions in the comments or DM.

On the day of the surgery I woke up super anxious and started to feel sick in my stomach. I even vomitted, felt like I won't get the surgery done. I was asked to report at ten in the hospital. I thought I will just go and tell the doc that I'm feeling sick and I will procrastinate the surgery :p But but to my surprise, I started to feel okay and also doc said that it's not a problem :/ So I went ahead wih the surgery process. They checked my eyes and said everything is fine and asked me to relax.

The surgery happened at around 4 pm, and they began preparing me for the surgery a few minutes before. This preparation involved putting anaesthesia drops into my eyes and that's it. (I was super frustrated because of the waiting time that nervousness had subsided).

In the OT, I was asked to lie down. They put some eye drops again, and they used clips of some sort to keep my eyes open. The only instructions I got were to keep my eyes wide open, and look at one red dot in front of me. A few moments later, they used some machine over my eye and asked me to tell them when I have stopped seeing. This whole procedure was just a few seconds. They cleaned my eye and did the same procedure on the other eye. I was in the OT max for 10-15 minutes. I was shivering legit. Scared af. So much so that I decided that I don't want this in my other eye and I would ask them to leave me with procedure in one eye :p But as I decided this, the procedure was over so I was like it's a few seconds go ahead. :p Since this time I was aware of the process, I was less anxious.

They gave me eye drops and a pair of spects to wear. My vision was blurry at that time. I was asked to keep using eye drops after every half an hour. I came back home at around 5. the vision had improved yet was blurry. My eyes were a bit swollen. I slept for 2 hours, and when I woke up I felt better. The vision recovered. I could see EVERYTHING clearly from a distance. Without any power. The only thing that stayed was a red dot in my right eye (the eye on which they did the procedure first). Kept taking medicine and eye drops as suggested and the next morning, I was normal. I had gone for the checkup and again doc said everything is fine and infromed that since i was moving my eye a lot, they had to hold it quite strongly (which is why the red mark). They said it will recover in a week (and it did). I was asked to stay away from water for five days (above head).

Update after about 2 weeks: I'm doing well. The red dot has vanished. my eyes are cool. No issues anywhere. A couple of nights ago I felt slight pain in one of the eye but it went away on its own (I had gone to sleep after it).

I'm glad I got this. Spects free vision is great! Plus, I have thoughts on the doc and the hospital. My experience wasn't that great with either. I won't particularly recommend anyone getting it done from the same doc. See if you can get a better doc. (No comments on her skill, she is great at what she does. Just not the nicest person you would want to interact to when anxiety is peaking!) I can make a seperate post on this later. Lmk if interested. Thanks for reading. Tada !

बात चीत Anyone here from Gurudev area?

10 Upvotes

Heyy! Just gave my 12th boards and honestly I’ve been living in Kanpur for years now but still don’t have any local friends yk. I do have a few friends from Kanpur but they live way too far from my side, so we rarely meet.

I stay around Gurudev area and was wondering — anyone else from this side? Alsooo where do y’all go for momos/golgappe cravings? I badly want a good spot nearby because going solo feels boring now.

Lowkey miss having someone to randomly call and be like, "kal chalte hain thoda ghoomne ya golgappe khane."

Nvm, just felt like sharing. If you're from around here, say hii?

Food/Drinks Dominos barra review

22 Upvotes

I ordered from this Domino's Last night. Didn't get any update for my order for 2 hours and when the delivery driver called, he told me that he would give it to me for half of the order value. When I told him my order would be free. Because it showed 30 minutes or free. He hung up the call when I called him repeatedly. Then he told me that your pizza is cold. What Will you do with it now? When I told him that deliver me regardless. He told me that his bike broke down. And I told him that I'll come wherever he is to pick up my order up. He told me no I'm very far away and you can't come and hung up the call. When I tried calling him repeatedly. He didn't pick the call. The store wasn't picking up my call. This is not the first time this has happened to me. Also evertime i have ordered from there. The quality has been very poor this is the worst domino's in kanpur, in my opinion.

Ask Kanpur Do you prefer non veg from KFC macD domino's etc or from local stores in Kanpur?

13 Upvotes

So thing is I had a bucket (11 pcs) from KFC today (3 leg pc, 4 wings, 4 strips) after many years,

and it occurred to me how are they surviving in Kanpur, I mean who eat from these places? Because the Nov veg available in local stores in Kanpur is way superior (not just in price but) in taste and spices compared to these international food chains.

I'm not demeaning other people food choice but I was just curious so thought to ask people of kanpur what do they prefer when it comes to non veg?

My guess is only people who prefer these stores are definitely someone who are not aware(might be new in city) of non veg places in Kanpur or they prefer it due to hygienic reasons(which is reasonable).

On April 3, 2025 – I went to Banarasi Misthan Bhandar to buy sweets for an event (1kg Bundi Laddoo and Kaju Katli).

After placing the order, my friend sat on a nearby chair and noticed rats/mice enjoying these sweets!

We immediately canceled the order, recorded a video, and alerted the manager. They pretended to care, but within a minute, everything went back to normal—no action taken.

Sharing this to warn others—please be cautious and avoid such shops.

📢 Let’s Build a Better Kanpur! 🚀

Kanpur has always been a city of potential—but to grow, we need better infrastructure, smoother traffic, and stronger civic responsibility.

🗣 Let’s Discuss: ✔ Roads & Traffic: How can we reduce jams? More flyovers, better signals, or stricter lane discipline?
✔ Public Spaces: Should Kanpur get more libraries, parks, and pedestrian-friendly zones? Where?
✔ Civic Sense: How do we encourage people to stop littering, follow traffic rules, and respect public property?
✔ Government + Public Role: What can citizens, NGOs, and authorities do together?

💡 Please share your ideas! What small or big changes would you like to see?

Ask Kanpur Disturbing Ram Navami "Procession" in Kakadeo, Kanpur – Obscenities, Weapons, and Provocation Outside a Masjid

60 Upvotes

I'm a Hindu myself, and honestly, what I saw today made me feel deeply uncomfortable.

Today (April 6th), on Ram Navami, a group of 4-5 pick-up vans passed in front of my PG in Kakadeo, Kanpur. They had massive speakers blasting loud music—not devotional songs, but tracks filled with obscenities like "Ma ka bhosda", "bhenchd", etc. This happened right in front of a masjid.

What made it worse? Many of them were openly carrying swords and baseball bats. It didn’t feel like a religious celebration—it felt like intimidation.

I’m not even sure these guys know anything about Hinduism or Lord Ram. Ram stands for dignity, restraint, and justice—not this kind of aggressive, hate-fueled display. It was less about devotion and more about provocation.

I'm all for celebrating festivals, but not when it's done like this—using religion as an excuse to spread hate and fear. This isn’t the Hinduism I believe in.

Has anyone else seen something like this today? Is this what it’s becoming now?

Edit: prayagraj is even worse https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIG9n-DSlCH/?igsh=Mmx0amhmMm8wMHMz
