Nick Harper noticed the difference immediately.

The Tennessee cornerback had tired of dealing with contacts to correct his farsightedness and decided to have eye surgery to correct a vision problem he estimates may have cost him 20 or so interceptions over his eight-year NFL career.

"They sat me up, I could see instantly. Instantly," Harper said Wednesday. "There was a clock in front of me. That's how I know. When I laid down, that clock was blurry. When I sat up, I could see it."

I don't know that he got this health issue, and hopefully that will turn him to the starring DB he used to be at Indianapolis.

It wasn't a health issue. He just had poor eyesight. In most seasons, he wore corrective lenses. Last year he chose not to, and is showed.

I am a bit surprised of the timing of this article. He got LASIC surgery over a month ago, and there was a story in the Tennessean about it then. I guess Theresa Walker ran out of material. :huh
