 Topic: May be getting left eye Vision
Posted: 28 Jan 2019 at 7:19pm |
|
BACK!! Went to Eye Doc today, cataract had fully formed up over this last summer, left eye has been pretty useless since hurt it in '87, Cornea Scar pretty well had it all hosed up and had issues with a Impact or trauma formed slight indication of a cataract. Stayed that way for over 30 years then decided last year to finish up what I had started.
Until 2016 when Wife had her PRK Eye Surgeries did I even have someone look at it, that doc said saw no chance of repair but surgeries have changed dramatically and now they think can fix it. Next week a cornea map for the lens implant, Feb 20 surgery.

If they just think that they might be able to fix it, did you consider a second opinion?

Good luck all the way around Dave!! Nothing but good news! After the surgery and you get to "see" again, don't make the mistake of looking at some 20 year old nurse too long.....your better half will cuff you up the side of the head and it'll start all over again.....
