Hi Kim,

Glad to hear that you are finally getting things sorted out. There are always going to be some setbacks, you just need to hang in there and get through them as best you can. I am sure that things will straighten themselves out eventually.

I am still so surprised/amazed to hear that there are so many issues around lens wear. I have been considering with myself whether to go down the route of a graft or not and, on hearing the experiences that people have had, I think it would be prudent not to. My vision without the lenses is "Where's the board?" however when wearing the RGPs (have been for around 15 years), I am two lines up from the bottom. Thankfully, my eyes are fine with the lenses so my attitude is "why change something that doesn't need to be fixed".

It is interesting to hear about other experiences, even though they may not always be positive.

Good luck for the next few weeks/months
Ben
