Well friends it is now the right eyes turn to get the pressure released. Going in today to get lasered and hopefully find out that the pressure in the left eye has gone down. Got my fingers crossed and hope you all will pray for me that it has. I can use all the help I can get. [Big Grin]

Thank you in advance. [Big Grin] [Smile] [Wink]

Ken,

Me and Missi's prayers are with you today. Those doctors are getting so good at that stuff, I'm sure there's nothing to worry about, but try to tell that to someone who's got to have it done, right? [Wink] Good luck!

Thank you all very much for your fantastic replies. I go back in two weeks for a checkup and probably won't see him for 3 months or so. I don't know if he will be precribing medicine or not to keep it under control. I am sure he will though.

I am just glad to have the pressure relieved and am going to be taking very good care of my eyes for the rest of my life.

Thank you all again very very much. [Big Grin] [Cool]

You are absolutely right Brian and I am "looking" at things alot differently now. I will be getting checkups every year now as it is covered by my insurance and am going to keep this glaucoma under control. [Smile]

Thank you Elie and true....oh so true in describing how I am feeling. I was numb at first but elated right after, kinda jumping for joy after having the surgery and hearing that the pressure in the right eye was lower as well. And that is basically unheard of so fast. I am overjoyed. [Big Grin]
