The rellief in vision is not immediate. The first shunt I got, my vision was just beginning to improve after 6 weeks, but I ended up having to have it revised. This time it is beginning to improve at 4 weeks. It is different for every person, I would assume, but it definitely requires patience and optimism! Good luck!
