Hi James,

I'm really sorry to hear about your situation. There is definite irony in your circumstances.

I too have a severe degeneration going on in my right eye and sympathetic reaction in my left eye.

I've always joked that I would rather lose my hearing rather than my eyesight. Why? Because you can't "hear" a good looking woman on the beach.

OK, 1 day later. Lots of goppy stuff, which is mormal but overall, MUCH better. The drug did not disperse so that's a relief. I can vevn read the computer screen with my reg. glasses. It's a little hard but OK. I imagine that within 4-5 days I'll be back to 20/20.

Thank God for good Docs.


Yeah!!!, well until next timew that is....LOL

Thanks all for your support, it means a lot to me.

I'm hoping that every day brings improvement in your vision. And I'm also hoping there's no "next" time for you but I think we've all learned with this disease to expect any thing at any time. Enjoy the return of vision but remember to rest that eye!

Yeah..95% better. Sometimes like this my vsion rapidly improves.
My daughters face is even more beautiful now... lol.

No pain, no floaters, no blurry vision, no dispersion of the drug. I'm a VERY happy guy.

Thanks ALL for your replies, concern and prayers. It helped.

*Happy dance forthcoming*
James
