Good to hear that this one went well! I hope the next part goes just as smoothly!

So far, so good. Wish you all the best!

Sounds promising! I'm glad you got through it all! :D

So far, so good. *fingers crossed*

If you find yourself seeing through time, you got one of Doctor Who's lens's.

I'm sure I'll need it some day. One of my retinas is detaching from the rest of the eye. Good to know it's not too bad a procedure. Hope you recover fully. <3

Oh dear. You'll be having a different surger and you should look into that right away. Mine was just cataract removal. Retinal detachment is serious (I know because I'm blind due to exactly that and it's not curable if you don't get it treated as soon as possible). Best of luck to you! I think you won't have to be awake for that surgery, but if you are, it still won't hurt since there basically aren't any nerves inside the eye. My retina tried to tear itself loose once and I saw all the blood but didn't feel a thing. XD

Maybe I'll bring it up next doctor's appt. Thx for the advice. <3

Please do! I might rock the detached retina look but it’s not something you want to deal with if you can avoid it. XD

Part of the reason I haven't done anything about it is the optometrist that told me about it basically said, 'You'll eventually go blind from it. Here's your script, bye.'

Good to hear from you.

Heal fast, and I will keep meeping at you ^..^

Heal well!

I'm so glad that's gone well!

Glad to read it seems to have gone well ^^

Happy Bday also :)

Good to hear it went well!

Congratulations on a successful surgery! Here's to even better results next visit, but congrats are in order!! =D

Glad to hear you made it through the surgery and I wish you the best in your recovery. You're in my prayers.

As for what you see when your lens is removed, my understanding is that the lens in our eyes filters out UV light. One of the cones in our eyes actually has a response to UV wavelengths of light, but this light is usually filtered out by the lens, so this light doesn't reach the cones. But when the lens is removed, we can now perceive some of the UV part of the spectrum with a violet/bluish tint.

Claude Monet is speculated to have started seeing UV light later in life when he had the lens of his left eye removed, and this is reflected in some of his later paintings.

Does this at all describe what you experienced?

It's good to know that you gone through the surgery. Congratulations.

Glad to hear it all went all well!
