Day 6

6 days on from left eye surgery and it’s all but healed. antibiotic eye drops end tomorrow, but have 3 more weeks of the steroid eye drops. I have a follow up consultation tomorrow morning with the surgeon who will hopefully fully discharge me. Currently able to work on laptop and PC with no glasses at all (save a couple of applications where I can’t adjust the font) and I’m using ready readers (£10 from Boots) for smartphone, tablet and Kindle.

Opticians appointment on 3rd August where I’ll find out what I actually need for my new eyes.

I'm glad to hear your healing nicely - I'm due my pre-assessment on Saturday to have one of mine done, I'm dreading it!

You're a few days ahead of me Phil, I had my op yesterday. Still a bit sore.

[Phil Sandford]

@susiemc hope your recovery continues well Sue.

Had my final check up post op with surgeon this morning. Signed off to be able to drive with no glasses. Will have opticians appointment early August to sort out readers. It’s life changing. Best wishes
