Day 69 (LE) - Day 4 (RE)



On February 9th I decided to have my right eye operated. My left eye is 20/20 for the most part of the day. It still drifts early in the day and after 6:00 pm.

A big difference on this surgery is that my RE hurt very bad on day 1 and 2. I resisted the numbing drops since they slow the healing down.

Today, I am doing very well and I am typing with one eye covered. As expected, any light is too bright at this point.

I am thankful to God all is going well. This time, I have kept my eye moist constantly and even set my alarm up to get up about 2-3 times during the night. The "baby" gets thirsty(dried) and the Sytaine drops are going to work.

The Doctor is very pleased with the progress on the left eye. He told me that for being a post-RK patient I am well ahead of the curve. I think it is also due to my intake of vegetables(carrots, spinach. celery), vitamin C, fish oil and Lutaine supplements. The Doctor thinks the prescription should lock in at the 3-month mark. However, it might take longer for me since I have RK.
