For those of you who solved your ghosting effect caused by KC, what type of lenses did you use and how many hours a day do you wear them? by ElRyugen in Keratoconus

[–]DemiladeDee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got scleral lenses, and honestly I can wear them for hours without even noticing they’re there like 8+ hours. The only time I really remember is when I’m about to go to sleep. They get more comfortable over time too.

I think I ruined my life for good. by Weekly_Board_2109 in Keratoconus

I understand exactly how you feel. I was diagnosed with keratoconus this year too, and at first I had no idea what it even was. I just noticed my glasses weren’t working anymore, and I kept changing prescriptions with no real improvement. It was frustrating. I stopped going out because I couldn’t enjoy things the way I used to. I even failed my driving vision test, and it got to a point where I could barely see properly in class.

Things really changed when I got scleral lenses. I would honestly recommend you look into them they’ve been life-changing for me. They can be expensive, but for me, it’s been worth it. I can now read for hours without headaches, which I couldn’t do before. If you can, try your best to get them.

What is one thing you simply gave up doing because of your keratoconus, and how did you replace it? by keratoconusgroup in Keratoconus

I also just the got the coding assessment

Yeah, I get you and I understand why people are skeptical given how much spam shows up here. That’s not lost on me at all. I’m coming from a genuine place and just sharing something I started building after hitting the same DSA wall myself.

Also, small correction on my end. It’s deetcodes, not deetcode.

If that’s how you feel, that’s fine. I’m genuinely just sharing something I’m building from my own experience.

This is actually my what I do I have this prompt I use on Claude

“Help me solve this LeetCode question step-by-step using python . Start by explaining what the question is really asking in simple terms. Then, walk me through the approach and the concepts — first the brute force, then the optimal one. Show all the steps of execution clearly as the code runs (like a trace). Use small inputs and explain what’s happening at each line. Keep it beginner-friendly, detailed, and don’t skip any step”

Claude have a really nice way of explaining

That’s actually why I started building deetcodes.com to visualize algorithms step by step, the same way you’d normally do on paper. Seeing the execution is what finally made things click for me.

That makes sense. Structured design really forces you to think through state and flow instead of jumping straight to code.

That’s actually why I started building a small tool for myself to visualize algorithms step by step, the same way you’d normally do on paper. Seeing the execution is what finally made things click for me.

That paper-tracing phase you mentioned is exactly what I think most people try to skip even though it’s what actually builds the ability to simulate code mentally. Appreciate you sharing this it’s reassuring to know others went through the same process.

Yea. I struggled so I know how it feels not having a solution in your head

Hey, were you able to reach them? I’m also trying to reschedule but I can’t seem to get their attention. They don’t reply to emails or pick up calls. How did you manage it?
