    Wishing you the best. I work for an Ophthalmologist. Best advice do what he tells you. Wear your shield whenever you sleep. Take your drops as directed and enjoy that new eye. Sorry to hear about the detached retina, it's a bi%$h

    Was home by 5p!!! WHEN I awoke, despite the clear eye guard and tape, I could see across the room! I have never been so happy, elated, thrilled, over the moon, beyond myself, ecstatic. What more can I say? All my life I wished I could see better. No coke bottle glasses, losing contacts etc. I don't know what I did right, but I'm watching TV from across the room. I'll know more tomorrow after the exam. Now I can't use my reading glasses..have to find a weaker pair! A dream come true. OK if I have to wear glasses and still use a contact, but my results are remarkable. My good eye is my GOOD eye! When I focus together,my vision is almost fine. I'll never sleep tonight. I've been giggling all night!

    My eye doc is going to be smothered with kisses. I feel blessed so far, a wish come true. I can't even explain how I feel.

    Thanks a zillion for all your prayers and well wishes, as usual, they worked! On the way home, I was reading signs! John and I were boogying in the car!

    This is wonderful news!!!! I'm thrilled for you. I hope that your exam goes well tomorrow and that you're able to continue to see perfectly with this eye. Good luck.

    What do rabbits do when they are happy? I think it is binkies ........they jump up and around at the same time.

    Well, I will do some binkies for you, because this is such amazing and wonderful news for you to have such good sight.

    Yes, we do live in a wonderful time - and it gets better all of the time with the research being done in so many medical areas.

    Karen, I really am happy for you.

    HEY! Have I told you guys I can SEE???

    Burst into tears when I saw the doc. He explained his "allergies" when his eyes teared up! He said he was so happy since my sight was one of the worse he's seen. My vision in the left eye is now 20/25. I can drive, do anything but bend my head below my waist and lift more than 5 pounds, so I took a deserved day off and loafed with Logan. Still on eye drops for 3 weeks, but big deal.

    Did I tell you guys I can SEE????
