My vision is good using both eyes. The right eye is a smidgen off when looking at the Amsler grid. The left seems okay. Although I can read without glasses my vision is 20/25 so I occasionally use reader +1.50. they're pretty low. The doctor says that has nothing to do with the my
diagnosis
I don't think I'll stop seeing the retina specialist because the biannual exams will help us to find any progression early so
treatment can begin and I'll keep very good vision for the rest of my life. I now believe it is AMD and not pattern Dystrophy because I now know two people in my family had/has AMD. I believe my age is what made the specialist think it was something different.ill be meeting him again in Dec so I'm sure he'll agree.
I do believe my prayers to St Lucy the patron saint of eye disease guided me to the Mayo clinic site. I have received so much positivity and hope. Google had me feeling like the life I know was over. I felt dead inside, but now I have hope.
I am very sorry you lost your husband. Please accept my deepest condolences. I believe prayer is very powerful. And I believe that is why you were able to get the things to our needed because of prayer. I hope everything continues on the right path for you.
Do you have kids? Do they help out as well.
I'm meeting with our parish Priest Wednesday morning. I want him to bless my St Lucy necklace that I just bought.
Thank for praying for me. Keep praying! Prayer is powerful. 🙏
Prayer is powerful!
