Other than the first morning wake up blur/fog/stuff, once I bathe it (sterilized water with cotton pads 3 times a day) I dont really see any change or difference in the vision and I'm awake for a good 18 hours a day - althou I do rest my eyes in the evening for an hour by just relaxing on the bed with a small wet towel over my eyes - the only time I really struggle to see out my left is under dark-dim conditions, the clarity and sharpness just isn't there (yet) so it kinda 'melts' together what I can see.
Also as something of interest, I was naturally 'left eyed'. I'm not sure how many have tested this, or know how, but to work this out rather simply. With both eyes look at a point or object, then using your hand make the okay sign (index finger and thumb circle), get the point or object that you're looking at centered into that 'circle', once you have only then close one eye at a time. Doing that you'll notice, either you've lined your right eye or left eye with the point or object - whichever eye has thats the eye you naturally favor.
I favored my left eye until things got bad, so I had some problems early on, with a mis-match of clear and blurry images until my brain learned to just take the vision from the right as the better. But I'm getting that overlap again, my brain wants to use my left eye, which means, I see thru my grafted eye first so to speak then everything tries to align with it, there's that much improvement since the operation!

Only those with KC know the hidden beauty of a Christmas Tree.
