Vision out of the new lens was blurry at first but that cleared up pretty quickly, and now I can see more clearly out of the eye than I can ever remember. Very little pain or discomfort. Bright lights a bit more annoying, but tolerable. Now I'm on a multi-eyedrop regime for a few weeks.</div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=43000.10&return_msg=43000.9" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="43000.10"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a43000_11"></a><div class="message" id="message_43000_11"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: Linn (INDYLS)<span class="message_time">31 Dec 2023 17:48</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: CHYRON (DSMITHHFX) <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 1 Jan 02:25"></span></span> <span class="message_count">11 of 13</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=43000.11">43000.11</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=43000.9#a43000_10" target="_self">43000.10</a></div> <div class="message_body"> My gran was told not to vacuum for a few weeks after.

Ok, I did hoover once.<br /> <br /> Anyhoo, Santa did the other eye yesterday, and now I'm perched with my 7" tablet, a pair of drugstore reading glasses, and better vision than I've had in quite a while.
