My eyesight is improving. The first cataract surgery went well and was so much easier than I had expected. I had one minor scare on Tuesday when my vision in the upper left quadrant of my left eye went all wonky and flashy. I immediately called my doctor and was told to come in right away. You should have heard me trying to explain my symptoms to the check-in tech . I finally had to draw her a picture. :) Anyway, after a full exam by Dr. Kitay, he said he found no retinal injuries, no surgery problems, and no pressure problems. He said I had experienced an optical migraine. I have had migraines in the past, but never this. I had no headache, just the eye issues. And actually, by the time I saw Dr. Kitay - I had to wait for the dilation drops to take effect - it was better. He said they usually last less than an hour. He also told me my vision was almost 20/20 in the left eye and was not done with recovery so there should be even more improvement! My right eye surgery is scheduled for Wednesday.
So. I was lying in bed last night waiting for my Nook to boot up. Just looking around. There's an air vent in the ceiling above my side of the bed. I look up there all the time. Last night I discovered cobwebs. Never saw them before! Guess what I'm doing today???
It's a nice Fall day here; a little cooler and the sun is out. I will be opening windows and tackling some more cleaning.
I mentioned in an earlier post that I wanted some flashy readers. I found a pair I like!
Stay safe!
