Lisburn Exiles Forum
(Site is no longer operational pending a major long overdue overhaul of the entire website. Thank you for your patience. Site should still be visible and searchable for old posts.)
The Lisburn Exiles Forum is dedicated to the memory of James Goddard Collins (The Boss) who single-handedly built LISBURN.COM (with a lot of help from many contributors) from 1996 to 29th November 2012. This website was his passion and helping people with a common interest in the City of Lisburn around the world is his lasting legacy.
Thanks Pat & Ann.
Oline had both eyes done over a month ago and now has 20/20 vision.
Now I cannot get away with anything.!!!!
I had my left eye done a month ago and now have 20/40 vision in it.
I have Glaucoma in both eyes so sight will not get any better.
Yesterday I had Surgery on my right eye but it is too soon to tell the results'
I will be happy if it turns out as good as left eye.
As before SURGERY I only had 50% Vision.
Hopefully can get rid of the seeing eye dog. BUT NOT THE WIFE.!!!!!!!!
His Lordship
Not to be outdone, I have to attend hospital next week about my eyes. I have been diagnosed with Macular Degenerative Eye Disease. I also have cataracts. Affects my reading and sight now.
After my last visit to the optician, she referred me to the Ophthalmologist. I'm looking forward to getting something done. You get used to these conditions because they are slow onset, but I'm sure if I had these cataracts removed I would see much more clearly.
The MDED is usually hereditary and nothing can be done about it.
NOTHING TO DO WITH AGE YOU KNOW.!!!!!!!!!
Beano, your friend must have the wet condition of the Macular DED. That's the reason he has to have the injections in his eyeball. He's not eligible for cataract removal as it would do no good.
I, fortunately, have the dry. It means I am eligible to have the cataracts removed. I'll know better after next week.
