It's not the best news.

Before the terrible weather this evening I had an appointment with the eye doctor who operated on my right eye. He wasn't there, but another doctor in his practice saw me. She was shocked at how bad my vision was. To catch anyone up, I got eye surgery, implants, yes implants (not transplants), in my eyes. I had several subsequent surgeries (clean an infection out, remove tissue from the iris, etc...), but after 8 months my eyes were almost perfect. My right eye, though, was somewhat off. So the doctor (that successfully does cornea transplants BTW, so he's good, I researched him) said one more procedure on my right eye would make it equally as good as my left eye. Now, it's as bad as it was before I had any eye surgery. Today's doctor made an appointment with the doctor who did the surgery for this Monday. Which I thanked her for because I want answers from the man who operated. The money for it came from some of my mom's life insurance money my dad received. My dad convinced me to do it, and my mom would have been thrilled. She herself had multiple eye surgeries in her youth because she was legally blind. There is still a chance it could get better. I've decided I'm going to think positive until I'm told otherwise. At least my left eye is great!

I agree with your positive mindset, it can make a world of difference. It should be interesting to see what comes of this next appointment, and I only wish that it is good news for you.

I'll be thinking positive for you too. It is good that your left eye is okay. My brother is blind but manages well.

I can't imagine how difficult it is. He must be a strong person.

As someone who is facing possible eye surgery, I can sympathize. I agree with the others, think positive. If the doctor is good as your research showed, he will be able to make it right.

I am sure things will turn out well. Being optimistic can also help us to walk through this obstacle in life.
