Yes, thank you. Better than expected. My surgeon said not to expect much for 2-6 weeks, total healing takes months and sometimes a full year. I already see much better, no more missing a line in a book or notes on a page. I ring handbells, so it came down to quality of life. Glad I did it sooner rather than later.

Great news that the surgery went well and your vision has already improved! That’s a long healing time; but I guess you’ll have hope all year that your vision will get better and better. Blessings!

I know this is a late reply, but did you have to do facedown after the surgery. Forgive me if I have asked you this before. My surgery for a pucker is in October (2025), and I'm very worried about the face-down position as I live alone and have pets to look after. Thank you.

So happy for you Sregiani,how is the healing going and has the vitrectomy surgery been a success,any complications,i am contemplating getting it done,did you have to be face down for awhile,thank you so much,Brian!
