trabeculectomy progress

[Justinerose]

I wake up with light refraction in my eye as I look at the clock, when I shut my left eye, I see nothing but blurring. I’m getting used to my normal daily activities and use my distance glasses when I’m outdoors. I am lucky that I have good left vision , so I can still do my painting and craftwork. It would be good to recover my overall vision.

Hi how long has it been since your operation? It took many weeks for my eye sight to recover after mine

When you say light refraction, if you mean haloes, or a rainbow pattern, I'd get it checked out asap. About 10 days after the trab on my left eye, I woke up and saw that kind of pattern. I went to hospital that day, and it turned out my trab had healed over and my pressure was 55mmHg. In the end I needed it needling, but it's held find now for 18 months or so. If you've got any concerns, definitely get it checked out!
