18. Discuss loosing your eyesight and then getting it back again.

Back in January of this year I broke my glasses so went to get my eyes checked for a new pair. When doing the exam the doctor found blood in my left eye. I had no idea I was even blind in that eye. After further testing the amazing doctors at UCLA diagnosed me with an eye disease called retinopathy. Which means I have abnormal blood vessels growing in my eyes, spidering out, and in my right eye they burst. I have had total of 11 lazer surgeries where they numb the eye and lazer the vessels. Yes it is extremely painful. I would take 1,000 lazers per eye per session. In June they had to operate in the right eye. They peel back the eye, remove the center gel and lazer what they couldnt lazer durring the other sessions. At that time the Left eye was 20/20. Around labor day the left eye went crazy. The blood vessels all the sudden started growing again, attaching themself to the center gel and pulled it away from the retna. I couldnt see street lights, a computer screen or even street lights. So once again I had surgery. I am now recovering from that surgery and my vision is comming back strong. sO I am on the road to recovery now and only blind in the right eye for now.
