SO FOR PEOPLE WHO MISSED THE NEWS ON FACEBOOK

[Addykat]

holy s**t like your whole eye might end up gone? DDD:

I just figured if the surgery wouldn't take that the eye would remain but just couldn't see. oh god. ;o;


GET YOUR ROBOT EYE!

If you're going to get a cybernetic eye in the future this is how it has to start.

OK SO ANOTHER QUICK UPDATE.
I HAD ANOTHER SURGERY A WEEK AGO.
THEY REMOVED MY LENS, MORE VITREOUS, SCAR TISSUE, ETC.
RE-LASERED THE RETINA DOWN BECAUSE IT HAD COME ALL THE WAY OFF.
STUCK THE SURGICAL BRACE IN MY EYE.

Remember what I said about how awesome surgery was?
I take that back.
I basically slept from Tuesday to Saturday and legit remember nothing of that part of the week.
I still feel like balls.

LUCKILY THEY GAVE ME BIG OL' VICODIN FOR WHEN IT IS TIME TO SLEEP BECAUSE ******** IF I COULD DO IT WITH MY TEMPLE, SINUSES, AND SCALP THROBBING.

*reads updates*

HOLY ********!!!! D8

Oh honey, I am so sorry you have to go through this!
I hope your eye is okay, I hope YOU'RE okay
omg I can't even imagine what I'd do if I was in your shoes ;________;

Just got back from another appointment.
s**t is healing proper, for real this time.
There's a small build up of...Fiber...Something around the oil bubble but they said my eye drops should get rid of it.
If not they can inject some s**t into my eyeball to kill it.

Aside from that my face is still made of pain and trying to see out of this eye is still really weird.  

[Fig Ivy]

Dang, son. This thread was a wild ride of emotions from the start.

I'm glad everything is going better. Surgery can suck.  

[Addykat]

a-are they gonna put a lens back on your eye once healing happens?  

[Felin Greenleaf]

IF everything heals properly, yes, they'll be giving me a plastic lens.
If it doesn't then I am down an eye basically.  

[Felin Greenleaf]

OK SO EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE HEALING PROPERLY
I NO LONGER HAVE SHOOTING PAIN IN MY TEMPLE
THE FIBRIN IS STILL THERE BUT INSTEAD OF JABBING THE NEEDLE IN MY EYE TODAY THEY'RE DOING IT TUESDAY WITH ME ASLEEP BECAUSE SERIOUSLY I DO NOT HAVE THE WILLPOWER TO JUST SIT THERE AND LET SOMEONE STAB ME IN THE EYEBALL  

[Felin Greenleaf]

Got sedated and needled in the eyeball today, will know how that worked tomorrow.

The IV this time scared the piss out of me though.
One second I'm cool, the next I'm swaying like I'm about to fall, pouring sweat, struggling to breathe, and apparently got really pale.

Took a good five minutes of laying down and ice on my neck to get me back to normal.

NO ******** CLUE WHAT THAT WAS ABOUT.  

[Ythan II]

Reading this thread/your facebook posts always makes my stomach turn.

This. Stop it.

 

[Felin Greenleaf]

BUT I HAD AN APPOINTMENT EARLIER AND EVERYTHING IS HEALING PROPER.
I DON'T HAVE ANOTHER CHECK FOR TWO WEEKS, NO IDEA WHEN I GET A REPLACEMENT LENS THOUGH.

maybe you're like me and end up with vasovagal reactions to blood and needle sticks and the like, I had almost the same reaction to watching my little sister get a shot so I can never watch when I get blood drawn/etc now  

[Felin Greenleaf]

ADDY I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THAT MEANS BUT I HOPE NOT.

Also had an appointment earlier and results are I dunno.

There's a small corner of the retina sort of folded on itself apparently, nothing they can do to fix that.

They're still not sure if it'll be worth replacing my lens or not, so there's apparently still a chance my eye will end up useless.

My next appointment is in a month.
