Glaucoma surgery, knife not laser, to lower eye internal pressure. Yesterday, I had the eye patch and spent a sleepy day with the cyclops fantasy - eating sheep in a cave, throwing rocks at wooden ships, ah life on an Aegean Island drinking grape juice ignorant and without benefit of depth perception.
This morning back to the Doc's. Eye patch off, everything checked out, internal eye pressure 13 which is excellent. Vision in the lacerated orb is a little less than before the procedure, they say that's normal and should come back to where it was in a few days.
Appearance, well that's another matter. Around the eye the skin is a grotty brown/purple from the wash they did, the eye it's self is a bloody mottled spotted mess like scrambled eggs with beets.
Fringe!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are okay. Back in 70 or 71, I was being examined for glasses at the hospital at Weisbaden and they suggested surgery to tighten the muscles on my eyes so I wouldn't have to wear glasses. I opted for the specs and limited jacking off to three times a day...
