Today is day five of my little experiment going without ointment in my bum AN eye. I last applied PM Refresh to the eye last Wednesday. Since than, I spent two days traveling from Atlanta to Greensboro and back, by car. No eye issues, even after some 14 hours of windshield time over two days!
Without ointment, the vision in my left eye is fairly clear; an improvement. I can easily make out the numbers on the wall-clock hanging across the room. I'm still experiencing double vision however, as the effected eye is not on center. It's still pointed ever so slightly up and to the right.
I've even gone without wearing those frosted eye glasses to hide my eye, which has been partially sown shut. It looks scary, kinda like one of the lizard visitors on that TV show V. I even made a little girl cry with the eye; she popped her head up over the booth at the IHOP and I gave her the stink eye...yikes! I felt terrible. Her mother made her apologize for making fun of the "poor man."
I'm leaving for Milwaukee in the morning for the rest of the week. I'll bring along the usual eye care supplies but hope I can continue to go without ointment. I'm going to schedule a visit with my Eye Doctor for after this weeks trip to get his take on how my eye is doing; cornea preservation etc. I have posted a current picture on my blog.
Take Care!
