~ Jeepers Creepers ~

 Yes yes....
I have a new eye ~
what? 
say you....
~ I say, indeed.
I have had quite the surgery to repair my damaged left eye ~

first was the removal of a deep cataract {or 'thick', so I am told...}

second was to repair the mishap-en eye {left} from a 'football' shape
to more of a socially-acceptable and visually-correct 'round' shape...
all-this being done manually {with hands of Doctor} 
after incising crescent shaped incisions on wither side of my iris, 
to reform said eyeball.


 third-ly...
was to implant a tiny plastic lens, behind my cornea ~
that will {hopefully} enable me to see far-away - 
~ without the need of an external double-ocular device {glasses}.

I am sore, yes.
I am swollen, yes.
can I see? um, yep...for the most-part.
is my outcome of my procedures a normal outcome for everyone?
NO
and...no.
everyone who has eye surgery is different in their procedure and healing....
do not let my posting here stop you from having your procedures done ~
we are different, we are individual and we will be fine!

much affection to you all ~
Blessings from the Farm ~ Lori

I think it's fortuitous that you will be starting to heal on SAMHAIN!

Hang in there the burning and soreness was a challenge but will get better.
I had to wear sunglasses when I was outside.

It has to be hard to be patient , you are so clever & I can't imagine you without a hook or needle in you hands. Enjoy the quiet time , relax , drink plenty of tea , snuggle with your fur babies …..you will be feeling better in no time !!!!
