Edit: after meeting with the surgeon this afternoon, I will not be required to lay face down for an extended period of time like many others I've known. And my surgery is next week instead of tomorrow.
Orig: Out of the blue I lost 80% of my vision in one of my eyes yesterday. It's like there's a curtain where you can't see through it at all, but can see around it OK
I know the medical supply companies have rental equipment like a massage table and mirrors where you can watch TV. I'm thinking I will need two of them one so I can be outside on my porch because I would go nuts being inside for that long.
Just wondering how people have survived that. I'll be going freaking crazy. And also curious about success rates.
Worst case is, I'll have good vision in one eye and I can live with that just fine. Edit: he said because of how bad mine is torn I might not have 2020 or better but it should be close in time especially once I have the cataract surgery. Assuming I don't develop scar tissue
