Many, many thanks for all the best wishes from everybody. I had a similar operation on the other eye 18 monthsa ago, and, like that, there is no pain at all in the eye itself (a bit scratchy/itchy at times, but hardly "painful"). The difference this time was that I had to undergo a "positioning" regime - which meant keeping in one position with my eye pointing downwards at the floor for several days, moving as little as possible - which caused much discomfort in my shoulders and neck. And then there's the faff of the eyedrop regime, which continues til the middle of the month. I have no effective vision in the eye itself, so I'm relying on the healthy one - and, when I had the eye shield on, I couldn't put my glasses on, so could see even less.

The real annoyance was that I've had to miss four concerts I had tickets for - I'm just hoping I'll still be able to get to The Mask of Orpheus at the end of the month, otherwise I'll be offering a spare ticket

Public thanks to the magnificent Hosts for their terrific support and work keeping things runnijng smoothly over the past fortnight - I'll still be keeping in the background for the next couple of weeks, but hope to be able to start contributing a bit more from now on.

Thanks again, everyone - the comments were a great support.

I've heard some malingerers' tales in my time but . . .

All the best with your recovery. :daff2::daff2::daff2:

Yes indeed, shame to have missed you in York last week, but I have both audio and video evidence of what took place which I can provide you with once your eyes are back in order.

Of all the restrictions that I see patients have to endure after Surgery , the restrictions after eye surgery would drive me the battiest.

That's interesting to know. let's hope few of us have to go through this kind of treatment.

In the meantime very best wishes to fhg, and let's all hope that the treatment works for the eye which is now under intensive care. Hang in there ferney,
