My appointment with Dr. Lewis confirmed what Dr. Winword diagnosed. My right eye, which I had surgery in, changed. A cataract has developed that is still causing blurriness and slight double vision. My vision is 20/100 without my glasses, and 20/50 with them on. Either way, I need the cataract removed. My appointment has been scheduled for the middle of October. I am not looking forward to it, but if it corrects the problem, it will be worth it. I was also told I am border line of having Glaucoma (a degenerative eye disease of the optic nerve). So, now I have to have the pressure of my eyes tested twice yearly for the rest of my life. Glaucoma cannot be reversed once it starts. It causes blindness. I have a lot to look forward to.... bummer!
On a lighter note, Jarrett celebrated his 6th birthday today!
