Re: Lets talk about the eye shall we. . .
I am back, and not gone long. Pretty amazing what can be done! Long story short I good to mend now and that's what I'm doing
. Long story: My eye condition (which I have been aware of for many years ... thanks Mom) is called Lattice Degeneraton: http://cms.revoptom.com/handbook/sect5e.htm
and this is what they did: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitrectomy due to tear/detachment.
Right now, looking out of left eye,, its all a watery blur and I can see light/dark changes. Except right at the top there is like this air/oil bubble that moves like a leveler when I tilt my head (like if you have oil on water in bottle and you tip it, it move to level). I am a human level head. I can walk upright, but tend bump into anything from my left until this slowly clears (from top to bottom) which takes about a month he said.
Thanks for an awesome friend Sue who became my personal chauffeur and even a packed an over night bag to stayover and drive me around this morning to the appointment and drugstore, I don't know what I would have done without her. Emily looked after the homefront great too. Doc this morning wants to see me in to weeks. He said no lifting or bending over (like to tie shoes) for the two weeks, but I negociated 1 week and the weekends cause of the daycare kids and he was good with that
