It's been just over a year since my Vict and I thought I'd update those who helped me through it. Within 4 weeks of it I was back to 20/20. I have been problem free for 12 months and the only issue I have is a bit of peripheral vision loss. :D Thanks again to all those on here that talked me through it.

Awesome Peej!

I had a field of vision test done recently which showed my peripheral loss at about 25%, maybe a bit more. My optho says the loss is from laser, not surgery. Did they laser you on the table? They did me,

Yes they did but it was worth it. I don't know if you remember but I strugled for over a year with constant bleeders that had me almost legally blind in my left eye. So I'll take some loss in the outskirts of my vision for the 20/20 in the center.

I thought it was just for floaters. Maybe that was someone elseż

Yes, definately worth it!
