Guest guest Posted August 8, 2000 Report Share Posted August 8, 2000 Good Morning! Anne-Marie,love the cheer! YOU are such a " card! " I find it very interesting that at least 3 of us in this little group have a lazy eye. I gather the eye surgery helped you a lot Anne-Marie but did not totally " cure " the problem? What was the surgery like- I am squemish when it comes to eyes and knives...... I think I will work on the eye exercises for a while until my next eye appointment. Teddi- so far so good re: glaucoma and cataracts- I get tested every year for them. My problem isn't related to medications. Vicki- I've read that myo affecting the eyes IS relatively rare. Fern- you sound just like me.It is so hard to keep that eye lined up when tired. It's hot here and I am a bit crabby- but I guess it's hot most everywhere right now. My ancient kitty does not do well in the heat either- really stresses out her old little body. I gave her fluids subQ last night to help " pump " her up and help her kidneys, or what's left of them. Later, all--- love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 8, 2000 Report Share Posted August 8, 2000 Dear , Yes, the surgery helped but did not toally fix the problem. I was under a local anesthetic and they clipped the muscle of the right eye (no incision, though). You need to know that was when I was young, dumb, and 22! Like I would let them NEAR my eyes now at age 37 with a local anesthetic--NOT!!! Anyway, I healed well and there was no infection or other problem. I wonder if they do any of this type of surgery with laser now? I know lots of eye surgery is now laser. Beats knives! Take care. Good luck with your eye exercises. I just hated them!!! You are a better woman than I! Love, Ann-Marie P.S. Here's the cheer for you and for today: No No NICTOINE! No No NICTOINE! Clear lungs, clear lungs, clear lungs!!!! ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
