I hope you're having a rest now!!
Feeling a lot better today, thanks - windy weather and cats made for a disturbed night but using an older pair of my glasses is already showing a marked improvement in my distance vision! :D

I'm still very sensitive to bright light (supposed to last up to 48 hours) but ok beyond that
Just 4 weeks of eye drops 4 times a day.. :roll:
Glad to hear it and if it's any consolation the storm here + cats also gave me a disturbed nights sleep!!!

I feel for you regarding the light sensitivity, I get it after my annual diabetic eye check and though it usually only lasts an afternoon, it's very uncomfortable and requires a dark room and rest.

Hope you have a speedy recovery.

Thanks - even shutting the cats out of our bedroom doesn't help as they're too vocal :(
