Losing your sight
I certainly have had my eyes opened (excuse the pun) in the last two and a half weeks.
A recent incident has meant that I have lost part of my sight in my left eye - I can hold my arm infront of my face and not see if with my left eye
It's too easy to take your sight for granted, it's only when you don't have it, you realise just how important it is!
BUT as the saying goes "Where there's blame, there's a claim"
I am still not sure if it is permanant or not - the eye hospital tomorrow should be able to tell me if it is or not.
There has been no improvement in my sight after two and a half weeks, even with anti-biotics, but we shall see (excuse the pun again) what tomorrow brings!
If it is permanant, I will not be able to gain my pilots licence, which will be the only thing I have wanted to do in life down the drain!
This is how much I can see out of my left eye:

It's been caused by a reduction in the ability of my immune system to fight infection (this happned because of the burns). A fungal infection in my bloodstream that has been there since infancy/being born then took the opportunity to attack my eyesite.
It should get better - the Opthalmologist on Friday said he could see improvement in the cell wall, but I can't see much of a difference yet.
I should be able to see properly again within a few weeks, but there will be permanenant damage, but hw much no one knows!Posted 29th May 2008 at 20:51 by MikeCracknell -
