They said there'd be side effects but not like this 💀

'I couldn't stop seeing women with large breasts after laser eye surgery'

This meme features a screenshot of a social media news post from British tabloid The Mirror, alongside a photo of the male subject of the story. The man, who recently underwent laser eye surgery, wears an eyepatch under his glasses, smirks at the camera, and rests his finger on his chin in a smug, amused expression. The accompanying news text explains that a rare side effect of his surgery left him hallucinating women with large, 'Baywatch-style' breasts for 10 days after the procedure. The humor comes from the contrast between the typical negative side effects patients are warned of before surgery, and this surprisingly desirable, absurd side effect.

This meme was originally shared on Reddit meme communities, repurposing a real news report published by The Mirror tabloid. The Reddit poster added a caption framing the unusual side effect as a humorous, unexpected outcome that is not the standard negative side effect referenced in pre-surgery medical warnings.
