Eye test Today

Postby Anne B » Tue 20 Mar 2007 1:27 pm

I have just had my eye test and it is good news :D

I am now nearly 4 months post graft (DALK). Before the graft i could not read any thing on the chart with or without glasses, today with new lenses i managed to get to the fifth line :D All of this is with my grafted eye, my left eye can not read anything on its own(if you get what i mean)
As you can imagine i am over the moon.
I have also got a pair of reading glasses which made quiet a difference.

Managed to chose some new funky Ted Baker frames. Just need to wait for them now HA HA HA i'm so excited :D

Anne B,

Congratulations! I'm really happy that your graft has been such a success. I only hope that once my stiches are out in August I'll have similar news to report!

Shame you can't make the AGM; Hope to see you at the social on April 15th.
John
