Morning all,

Having tried to persevere with contact lens am now told that recent bout of hydrops will only get worse... and I now have no cornea left....am now booked in for 8th feb for full depth surgery.

Hmm...wish me luck

Good luck!

The whole experience really is underwhelming........hope all goes well and keep us posted!

I'm only 3 DAYS post graft and managing to reply! Op and discomfort much less traumatic than expected. More suprised at how lethargic I feel. Can see better out if my grafted eye already! Hope all goes well for you. Don't spoil your Xmas worrying.Better get off the PC my 5 mins is up for today.

Back when I had my graft, PC's were so new, there was the ZX Spectrum, Atari, BBC and Dragon!!! No limits back then.

Lethagy is probably due to the time it takes an anasthetic to completly leave your system, plus the nights draw in so quick.

Will soon be shortest day then Christmas.

Michael, just wanted to wish you all the best with surgery, am hoping that everything goes well for you. Please have a great Christmas, time will go so fast and you will be having surgery before you know it!

Honestly, all i can say is that everything will be fine, as i stressed and completely went overboard before i had my graft, then had surgery, came around and all i could say was ... is that it?!!! LOL! I'm not so sure what i was expecting, but nothing like what did happen!!!

Keep us updated, and please don't worry.
