This morning the world around me looks better – and brighter.
Last Wednesday I had to have a re-bubble at Manningham Private Hospital because the donor graft had detached at the bottom of the cornea. This time around she (my eye doc) used air instead of gas and the results are much more encouraging. Under specific subdued daytime lighting conditions I can actually see the air bubble and it wobbles like jelly.
At night when I trigger a motion sensor night light the left eyeball lights up like Luna Park. What i see is a engolated spider web with the centre circle midpoint between middle and bottom of eye, brightly illuminated by the incoming light refracting off the bubble surface and again off the air particles. Crikey… it’s like a religious event wave the hands and chant.
