Day 39


I did postpone the surgery on my right eye to February 9th.

My eye hurt a little bit for the past few days. I think another month will help my eye to gain more distance.

Currently my vision on that eye is 20/80. As far as reading computer screen and printed text, it feels great. The starbursts from the car lights has gotten better.

I am happy overall, knowing that it is progressing and that I need more patience. Thanks God I am doing it one eye at a time.

I noticed I am losing my "powerful" near vision I had experienced for the first 3 weeks. But that's how is supposed to be.

Day 24 - Happy New Year 2017



01/01/2017

The new year is looking much better out of my left eye.

The trend for the last 4 days has been that the progress is very noticeable in the morning and it fluctuates throughout the day. Right now I am typing at about 20 inches from the screen and I see very clear.  It is still very difficult to drive at night, although I could because of my right lens with prescription. Lots of glare and starburst from vehicles headlights, added to the fact that my eye is tired and cannot see as good as it does during daylight.

My eye still gets very dried overnight. I am 11 days away from the scheduled date to operate my right eye and I am not sure if I would do it or not. If it were today, I would not do it. My left eye is currently not reliable to depend on it.

Overall I feel fine about the progress, it is slow and perhaps slower for post-RK patients.
