Right about now last Tuesday is when they rolled me in for emergency eye surgery.
I can see over half my field of view in my right eye at this point. That’s actually pretty good, since it means we’re on an accelerating curve again – the maximum horizontal diameter of the bubble is shrinking now, rather than static. From top of eye down to focus centre, it’s pretty normal for me – nearsighted as all hell, but that’s normal. Then I have a band which moves around all the time because it’s the edge of the bubble, and then the bubble area.
If I look down I can see all the edges of the bubble in peripheral vision.
My eye still looks pretty damn scary tho’! It’s been one week…
…since I looked at you
…but if you compare it to two days after surgery, you can see it’s quite a bit less bloody overall.
Sadly, I have lost most of the macrovision. But I did use it a lot while I had it!
Follow-up appointment tomorrow; I don’t think that’ll change much. I am hoping they’ll let me stop sleeping only on my right side, tho’. I’m not sleeping well being immobile like that, and it’s catching up with me – I look kinda terrible. On the other hand, Anna and I got into a Scary Eye Fight on Tumblr last night. Everybody wins! Or loses. Depending. XD
