Hello again.

Saga Lout · 23rd July 2019, 07:11

Having not been on since last year due to eye problems, I'm happy to be almost back to my version of normal. I still have my ZT and the Pewter 75, the 75 died 15 months ago and I couldn't see well enough to mend it, but I'm about to get it sorted to move on to a good home.
If anyone is wondering, Denise is just fine and coming up to 6 years post transplant, yes, 6 years! She's doing well.
I hope everyone is doing OK with their cars.

I developed cataracts in both eyes, the first surgery went wrong, as did the second on the same eye. I wouldn't let the left one be done until the right one was corrected and it went blind for two years. After 7 eye surgeons including one professor of eye surgery had found nothing wrong, I finally got a surgeon that confirmed what I'd been saying, the second lens in the right eye was rolling from side to side. I had surgery to secure that lens but it didn't work out as it has gradually torn the inside of the eye and is in my vision all the time. I've not driven in the dark for 5 years so I've missed lots of shows and meets. The left eye has been done and I can read the smallest print now, the right eye will have more surgery on Monday next week and, I will be blind in it for up to 3 months whilst it heals after the removal of the lens that's stitched in. When the eye is settled I'll be getting the correct lens put in and will be able to see near and far again without blurred vision.
I have one eye for near vision and one for far, thus no glasses needed ever. In the initial days after the stitching of the lens the vision was incredible, reading number plates at 200 feet and, at the same time reading the smallest print, the eyes work together to give me the best it can be.
I hope things are well with you and I hope to catch a meet soon.
Thanks.
