Promoted from Scleral

Postby Andrew MacLean » Wed 18 May 2005 12:09 pm

Following my post about trouble I was having with my scleral, I am now waiting for the delivery of a soft lens (Kerasoft? to be honest I can't quite remember what the lens was called).

I can see the top two lines with this lens. The power is -30d, and I wait to see how I get on. I hope I can wear it for more than the hour per day I was managing with my Haptic.

Meantime my graft eye continues its long recovery from surgery. I still have no useful sight in that eye, but tomorrow I am off to have the remaining stitches out. I have high hopes that I'll be able to see pretty well through this eye while they make up their minds about what to do next with my left eye.

I'll keep you posted.

Hi Andrew

Not seen that before....going from Sclerals to Kerasoft....will be very interested in this...I tried the Kerasoft in my right eye about 2 years ago when it was in trials....and it didnt help me that much.........but so glad it may help you.

Let us know how it goes tomorrow.....be interested in your experience of having the stitches removed.
