It has been really weird since about the 4th. I have this floating bubble in my eye that creates a magnifying circle in my eye.
Today it is a small bubble that stays at the bottom of my eye so that when I look down at the ground everything is blurry but at least I can see from the horizon up.
Every day is something new but Dr Hunk's office told me that it's normal and that it means I am healing properly.
I finally thought to ask about being online and was told to avoid the computer. HA! Me?? Avoid??? Suuuurrrrreee, as soon as I to just a wee bit of lottin.
Ok, kids, have a wonderful day, time for me to take a nap .... or maybe fix lunch .... or maybe.......................................

Oh yes, that bubble finally disappeared 37 days after that surgery.

Ok so now I now this is a result of something done earlier? How long ago did this start? I will look back some more but if you shared under a title about something else I won't find it.

I had a hole in my left retina and Dr Prettyboy fixed it, I had to sleep belly down for a week and when I was up and around I had to keep my head down and look only at my feet. Doc removed the vitreous fluid in the retina and replaced it with gas so that it would press on the wound to help it heal.
Lucky me healed well and now I have much better vision.

@rebelann So the bubbles you were seeing before are healed now, or is that still a process? I've never heard of vitreous in the retina before so I had to look it up. I found I was lacking a bit in understanding. I guess it's been more years than I knew that I've seen where the retina is. It appears that the retina surrounds the outer part of the eye and isn't only one spot in back of the eye as I was thinking but is like a semicircle that goes around the perimeter on the outside.
I don't think that the retina is immersed within the vitreous fluid, but I will ask my eye doctor to be sure. The reason I don't think that is because my vitreous has detached from the optic nerve which sits directly in back of the eye. I was told to make sure I didn't ignore any symptoms that meant it was detaching from the retina too. But, maybe both our doctors told us what they thought we could understand and the information isn't complete.
I'm including two links I found one shows the optic nerve on the back of they eye and the second shows the retina surrounding the eyeball on the outer part of the inside.

The retina is a thin layer of tissue that lines the back of the eye on the inside. It is located near the optic nerve.
