Just got back from my Eye Dr. Every thing is in order and healing nicely. Im starting the weening process from the Prednisolone and using up the little Vigamox I have left. I did the testing for my new glasses for work. My uncorrected eye is 20/30, A nice improvemnet from 20/50. I can see things better with my new left eye, than with the right old one:) My next and last check up is in November. just to see if everything is healed up. So now that I know what to expect,When the Dr. says it time for the right eye to be done I wont hesitate to do it. So I guess that ends my adventure. Thanks to all who gave me support and Mark for paving the way. Jim [/quote] Old James |

You are welcome, Jim...and congrats on the improvement. You may notice it get even a little better as the healing progresses. I had the final Lasik on my right eye almost 2 weeks ago. Done with the drops now, and the doc says everything seems to be a-ok. A little haziness yet, and of course with my old work specs, things are a bit messed up because the eye has changed. But a several of months of healing (it can take 1-6 months for the eye to fully stabilize) I should be finally able to get a new scrip that matches my new eyes. I already am pretty much free of glasses at home now. My left eye has come in very nicely and I have no reason to believe that my right will not do the same. It's been a long journey, I can deal with the old work glasses for a few more months. Glad it is working for you as well, Jim. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Very happy kitty indeed. After being almost blind in one eye for over a year? Meow!!! Just allow the slow healing process to take it's course before you try to get your glasses scrip changed. I am sure your eye doc will advise. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |
