Hi Jacob
Now this is one I know. First the easy one - I think you might hear from
more people who could first see (even only partially like me) that you still
se funny shapes. As I'm typing this, I see lots of light points like stars
and inbetween floating things. I always just thought it should be so - no
harm in them, any way.
As for the sandy feeling and pain, I really think you should find you
another oculist and let them have a look. I had cornea transplants and my
eyes become dry very easily. However, these days they also sometimes get
infection which is rather painful. Sometimes the cornea can also grow into
a point and literally scratch against your eyelashes. I know this sounds
gory, but there are usually reasons for the warnings we get. Then again,
you may have glaucoma and not feel a thing. Even though I can't use my eyes
any more, I think it is still important to have them seen to from time to
time. Sometimes some stuff may be lurking which you don't even know about.
I wish I could have you visit my doctor here in Kimberley - he is one of the
most normal, friendly and outspoken people I know. He always tells me
precisely what is going on and does not make me feel like an idiot either.
And of course, often one's fears are way beyond reality.
So I suggest, find you another nice doctor! All the best.
Retha
