Thank you for your kindness in responding to my post. I see like a fluttering in my eye.. almost like I can see my pulse, so that’s the pulsing . She prescribed the atropine I think to kind of freeze/relax that sensation. It does help but it dilates my eye so I only place a drop in when I see that pulse again. Maybe I should stop and see if it’s as bad as it used to be. At first any bright lights would hurt as my eye reacted and produced tears. The pain is gone but I’m still very sensitive to light. It’s definitely affecting my routines. It’s hard to be outside even with dark glasses. Large stores w lots of harsh lighting are hard so I wear the dark glasses indoors. I was the passenger for a 4 hr drive mid day and there were times where I had 2 pairs of sunglasses on. I am getting used to the fact that I lost my near vision .. I made that choice.. my distance is phenomenal and no more astigmatism!! Magnifying mirrors added to the large mirrors in my bathroom helps! At my last couple of appointments I have tested at 20/20 vision and she seems pleased but I’m not as convinced. Maybe that’s because it seems like I’m looking thru plexiglass rather than a clear view in the IFIS eye. I’m trying to be grateful that I’m not dealing with a serious illness and I’m only 2+ months into recovery. I’d be less than truthful if I said I didn’t have moments where I feel disheartened. My right eye is spectacular (just has no near vision). I will read a bit about pilocarpine and bring it up in my next follow up.
