Re: Crosslinking local or general anesthetic??

Thank you for your reply that doesn't sound too bad. What was the recovery like afterwards? How was the pain and how was your vision? I am curious because I am not sure how long I'd have to wait after the procedure to get pregnant. Thank you

Crosslinking local or general anesthetic??

Re: Crosslinking on good eye.

Thanks for your reply. I have just gotten a new pair of glasses, I am still feeling dizzy and headaches since getting them and they dont feel quite right yet. Is this normal? I've been wearing them a week now, the right lens has such a high prescription.

Re: Crosslinking & Pregnancy

Thanks for your reply space_cadet
I think we are going just 'try' and pray to God that my left eye stays good and doesn't go bad like my right one, otherwise I'm screwed, and hopefully get back on the crosslinking list after the birth of my second child. I hope they let me go back on it.
