Good Friday! Here's the scoop as my Sister used to say. I saw the eye Dr. Wednesday. He said I can't see because of Cataracts and a new prescription is pointless until after removal surgery! I've known I have cataracts for years but they were mild. How can this happen in a matter of weeks. Plus I thought it was my right eye, not left, that was in worse shape. I wasn't ready to commit to SURGERY! Made another appointment for the 10th with the Dr. who would do the SURGERY!
Yesterday I took an old pair of glasses and put them in front of my current Computer glasses and I could see clearly out of my left eye! I popped the lens out of the right side, since that eye seems pretty good. Taped the glasses together and I could see all evening! This morning it's just not as good 😭 Sigh. Thought it might help me get through the week.
One thing I didn't mention is I have weak eye muscles. A life-long issue but controllable. However, with my left eye out of focus, that's where it's quite tough to see as a whole.
I question the need for cataract surgery at this point. If I can use glasses somehow for a little while longer, that's what I'm hoping for.
What I'd like to do: I will read all your comments and ❤️ and 👍. But for now at least, only reply when asked a question.
I'm going to try a keep making videos because I love making videos! Or not. I guess we'll see... Ba-dum-bump! 😬
