Hopefully third time is the charm

Despite best efforts, I needed a third operation on my retina. This time silicone gel was used instead of gas to keep my retina in place. So far, so good. Vision is pretty blurry out of that eye still, but it's got a bit to do with the lens that was inserted last time. Will need a new prescription for my glasses once I'm healed up.

This latest procedure does mean I will need a fourth operation later to remove the gel, but that will be a while before that happens I believe.

Glad things are working in your favor with your eyes. I think we take our sight for granted. Me personally I would skip the eye protection sometimes while working in my wood shop but the past eight or so years after my kid brother lost the use of one eye after suffering a stroke I would walk around with one eye closed and that motivates me to wear protection all the time even if I am just making one cut
