The twenty-four lx minutes menstruum later on left phacoelmulsification of cataract alongside intraocular lens implantation

to illustrate what I expect similar on the other side of your reckoner screen!
I'm going to endure pacing myself re role of the reckoner over the side past times side few days next successful optic surgical physical care for yesterday.

The surgical physical care for yesterday at Moorfields Hospital was to give me a novel lens inwards my left eye.  This is the firstly one-half of a conception to resolve ii problems alongside my eyes - cataracts together with close acuate narrow angle glaucoma.  The proficient intelligence is my optic nervus is OK together with has non been damaged past times the latter.

For those who aren't overnice this is what phacoelmulsification involves!

Thing is - I conduct maintain to vesture an optic shield for 24 hours (and together with then every nighttime for ii weeks) together with the spectacles for seeing the hide don't fit over the eye shield unless worn at a jaunty angle of virtually 45%.  Plus I conduct maintain to indicate my olfactory organ inwards the air together with expect down!  It seemed a proficient see to tape this for posterity!

So I forthwith conduct maintain iv weeks of regular optic drops - together with today is when I acquire how to produce them for myself.  Thank you lot therefore much for all those who wrote alongside tips next my Facebook appeal.  The "closed eyes, plop the drib inwards the corner together with permit it curl inwards when I opened upwards my eye" technique works fine!

For the side past times side 3 weeks I conduct maintain 1 optic which matches the prescription lenses inwards my spectacles together with 1 which doesn't - which is going to accept some working out!  I listen some people conduct maintain a lens removed from their glasses.  Any tips for how other artists / reckoner users conduct maintain coped alongside this would endure appreciated.

However inwards 3 weeks fourth dimension on 23 May the correct optic volition endure operated on every bit well.  Then I'll conduct maintain ii eyes which don't fit my reading / reckoner spectacles for half-dozen weeks!

Finally, at the get-go of July I tin become together with acquire prescriptions for novel lenses for spectacles for reading.  My distance vision should endure absolutely fine together with non require lenses

I am therefore looking forwards to beingness able to:
  • read exhibition labels without having to goose egg inwards closed to the label!
  • see musical note together with color properly again
  • read small-scale impress without magnifying glasses
  • not conduct maintain double vision whatsoever to a greater extent than without glasses
  • drive at nighttime together with inwards miserable visibility in 1 trial again  - together with without the starburst resultant from all the headlights
For to a greater extent than virtually artists alongside optic problems together with other disabilities - together with how this all came virtually for me run into MAKING H5N1 MARK: Artists overcoming disabilities 25 February 2013

UPDATE

The Good News:
Eye shield forthwith off together with it's every bit if a celluloid or veil has been lifted. Colours are amend together with everything is crystal clear together with sharp.  The contrast is dorsum together with I tin forthwith read the titles of books which are across the room, whereas if I closed the optic that's been done together with expect but alongside my correct I can't fifty-fifty brand out where the championship is on the spine. Plus  I tin read a majority alongside my electrical flow reading glasses.

The Bad News:
I can't run into the hide alongside either reading spectacles or distance spectacles together with I latterly broke my reckoner glasses.  Which agency inwards guild to give off the reckoner I conduct maintain to lay a spell over my left eye.  So I forthwith bespeak a proper optic spell therefore that I don't conduct maintain to drib dead along using dressings together with hard to acquire concur of tape for my hypoallergenic needs (Blenderm Surgical Tape if you're interested).  Maybe an optic spell together with an inflatable parrot......
