Hi Val.
post graft the cornea is healing well and my specialist is very pleased so that makes me happy, I no longer have any drops to put in only viscotears twice a day to help with hayfever I suffer with.

I also suffer from hayfever. I didn't take any medication today cos I felt OK, boy did I suffer with my grafted eye (7 months post graft). I had to take antihistamines, painkillers, my eyedrops and lie in the dark, when I got in from work. Feeling fine now. Vision seems better than usual. This seems to happen to me, I have a bad eye day, then I see an improvement. I imagine the stitches pulling and causing pain and distortion, then it sorting itself out a bit!
