I am afraid that this really is a situation where most of us decide to postpond the graft until we have little to lose. For some good sight returns very quickly, for others (like me) it takes much longer.

There seems to be no basis on which anyone can predict how any one of us will do.

All the best

Mine is taking a long time but then i have had a lot of problems with stitches so don't be disheartened here. Some wake up and can see much better so hang on to all the positive things and just know that PATIENCE is not a big enough word!!! Hehe i'm learning on that one!! :wink:
