8 weeks post graft

Hi all

Well I had my 8 weeks post graft check up yesterday. My consultant (Mark Batterbury St Pauls Eye Hospital Liverpool) is really pleased with my progress. He said the corneal graft is healing very nicely but I do have some astigmatism (which I expected). I am still on 4hrly steroid drops and see him again in 2 months when he is going to do a full eye scan and eye test. I still have some 'grittyness' mainly when I'm tired but nothing too bad.

My vision has not improved on a large scale but things appear to be slightly less blurred on a 'good day'

I hope everyone is keeping well
