everything seemed to be going quite well after i had the graft in march. however i went last week and instead of it being a football shape its shaped like a football.

so am back on all my drops.

bit disappointed.

Michelle,

Am a little confused when you say instead of it being a football shape its shaped like a football..

I am sorry that you are having to go back on your drops. Are these steroid ones?

Wishing you all the best with it, please let us know how you are getting on!

im presuming that he means the cornea is like a rugby ball shape and obviously should be round as a football. thats what he said.

am back on antibiotics and steroid drops.

go back next friday to see how things are.
