My glaucoma specialist was happy with how great everything looked at this morning 's 24-hour post-op visit. The pain and the bloody eyeball and all those things are part of the deal. This is by far the messiest eye surgery I have had. I am currently supervised by the most vigilant of our nursing staff: #Neville .

I just got through eye surgery.
Sorry you are having pain. My had some heavy irritation but nothing that could be called true pain.
I see my surgeon for my one month check up, tomorrow. I should be completely off the steroid then.
The retina is not fully smoothed out for another 6-7 months but it is vastly better than it was before surgery or in the days right after.
I hope you have as good of an outcome as I have had.
Sending my best good juju vibes your way!

OMG retina surgery is a whole another beast! I am very glad your process has been good and sending wishes that it will continue in the same vein. I had surgery on my right retina twice, on the left one four times, and there were two cataract surgeries per eye in there, then the left eye completely took over being the problem, kept getting steroid implants in it, then laser surgery for glaucoma, and now stent placement for glaucoma. I am sending you knowing solidarity.
