Alrighty then....things have improved a bit, here and there, with my vision. A few days ago I could see very far but not mid range or close with my left eye and I could only see very close with my right eye. Now the difference between the two is just starting to edge away and both eyes are working together a bit better so that I can see with a little less distortion. However I still can’t see anything with any real clarity. I'm allowed to drive, but it is no fun...I would have a very tough time trying to navigate my way around a strange place. Also, I can see my computer screen better without reading glasses, but only blearily, and I have to sit with my face pretty close to the monitor – like 10 inches away. Reading glasses sometimes help, but only if I take out the right lens...but still it strains my eyes mightily.
I will try to go back to work next week (they have me scheduled Thursday), but if my vision hasn't improved much more by then, I'm going to need glasses. Before the operation, I did ask what my options were if I still couldn't see well enough afterwards and the doctor did say that they would get me into glasses in a hurry. I’m not sure if that meant they would cover the cost, but I am going to find that out. It seems only fair, since they did get four grand out me.
