My daughter took me to the eye doctor today. How does someone go legally blind in one eye and have no clue? I’ve had some vision issue a year, but the last few months have been really bad. Do any of you close one eye to see and then the other? I never did I thought dirty glasses, need new glasses, etc. I got a referral to an eye surgeon to see if he can recover the vision or at least stop it from getting worse. My mom is having cancer surgery again on the 1st, so it may take a few more days for me to get it, but he said it’s agressive so move fast. Ain’t life grand...

Well Vipper, that’s more or less what happened to me. Went legally blind in one eye and didn’t fully realize it was happening at the time.

You need some prayers, I’m thinking.

Prayers being sent for you and for your mom.

Praying that all will work out, that you will be able to get the help you need in a timely fashion and all will go well with your mom’s surgery.

Please take care of yourself.

Pretty much every day. My eye sight is pretty bad and that's why I've worn contacts since my 20's.

I hope you'll be able to see this doctor soon. You don't need the stress of not knowing along with your mothers surgery. You will have our prayers and certainly ears during this Glitch. No better place to go than here. Many of us have health issues and you will not be alone. Our Pastor said in todays sermon...The Lords promise to us...I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always.

I’ve been legally blind in one eye for quite a while. I had surgery in the other eye to see.
