how long did it take for your eyelid to go back to normal? I was told I would have to wait 3-6 months for the eyelid to fully try to resolve on its own or if it doesn't, its then that I can ptosis surgery to lift the eyelid..

I am recovering from this just now. I am 3 weeks post-op.. I hated the first week as i had to sit and sleep in that weird position because the surgeon had to place a gas bubble in it the following day.. I still have a wonky eyelid, you did not have that 2 weeks post op..so cool. I am 36 and I stilll do not know what caused it because i never had any eye injury or there was no trauma to my eye. I will only stick to my being near sightedness as the cause of it because that is the only one that makes sense.

Nice video! Heading down that way next May!

Just coming over this video now as I am due to have a vitrectomy surgery in 3 months time due to diabetic complications I was given the option of knocked out to sleep or just a local anaeshetic I choose the local as I hate being put to sleep, I also made the biggest mistake by watching a UA-cam video of how they do the procedure 😂 I'm so nervous yet I know I have no choice but seeing how upbeat you where has gave me some hope 😊

cool lake. envy from china.

I enjoyed the video! Thanks for sharing y'alls experience!

Thank for this! I’m going through some issues right now and like you said, information is very scarce.

If your looking to confront me, just look for the small deserted sandy island with one broken dead tree on it, there we have have a final match to decide who is the best once and for all

have you had prophylactic laser treatment done for your left eye?

I'm going through everything that you are explaining here I'm still trying all the things I can find to see again like I did before

How's your vision right now

Amazing video! Stunning as always

Enjoy your freedom. Looks amazing. Here in Europe, we are suffering under the boot of bureaucrats, who stop us doing everything and require us to have an approval to do the smallest of things.

Why is a phone always in your hand?

Do you minus power in eye before retinal detachment?

Did you mention how you think the detachment happened? Did you rub your eye too much or did you hit your head near the eyes?

Absolutely epic scenes my friend! Such a beautiful and unique place! Amazing episode guys 🙏

How long to bike from Canmore into Banff and then back to Canmore?

When I move my eye, the buckle rubs against my eyelid, have you ever had this problem?

I have my vitrectomy in a week. Nervous af

Your sharing is so very kind! My friend is near 3 months on her silicone oil buckle, and is concerned how to know best the retina is healed so the silicone should be removed. (And there’s a danger of leaving it in too long?). That surgery is hundreds of miles away, and she doesn’t want to go the distance only to hear she’s not ready. Can you help? How do we learn up, on that?

Hi! I have retina thinking now and I'm starting to feel anxious. 🥺

Caalln

Your eye cleared so quick! I’m 14 days post op and I’m looking like your day 6

This video is my comfort vlog - I think I’ve watched it about 5 times 💕

I had the Scleral buckle surgery 3 years ago at 68 years old. I had 20/20 vision still...so I was very concerned. I also had the silicone oil. The surgery was not painful at all, nor was the recovery...except having to keep my head down for the first 7 days. That sucked. Six months later the oil had to be removed. That was considered somewhat risky...because the inside fof the eyeball needs to be rinsed. Afterwards, retina surgery often causes cataracts...clouding of the lense. I had cataract surgery as a follow up procedure (easy peasy to say the least). Three years later I have 02/20 vision...except I still have some distortion, crystal clear but wavy lines in the repaired eye. Scar tissue on my macula is the reason according to my surgeon. Not sure that will ever be remedied. Glad to have my vision though.

I also had the surgery. I had a torn retina and had emergency surgery about 3 weeks ago. I'm getting better. They say it should take 10 to 12 weeks.

I have same thing . I need to talk with you please .

Great video! Well done, you are so brave at such a young age. I went through the whole thing ( not a pleasant experience) a few monhs ago and it went very well due to a great surgeon in Edinburgh. You are so right that never take your eyesight for granted and really carefully think about wearing contact lenses. Mine was due to old age but you are so yound and I wish you well for the future. Best wishes

Bienvenidos

I am seeing wavy vision is any had any idea about it

Thank you for sharing this experience. I have lattice degeneration in both of my eyes because I'm also highly myopic and thankfully I went to the ophthalmologist and they caught it so I got laser on both of my eyes to keep the retina from detaching. But I feel like I'm always going to be afraid of it snapping or something

Hi just had the op 11 7 2024.gas bubble going down now .getting there.thanks for your help you look amazing now.❤

Was anybody's retinal tear on the lower part of the eye? My daughters is there and I'm just curious

Whew- I guess so far I've been lucky. Surgery yesterday with the buckle and the gas bubble. Today after the surgery, the patch came off and there's very little to no pain at all. Not taking anything for pain either. I was half blind in my left eye from the sudden detachment. It's very blurry today and can only make out some fuzzy shapes kinda like when you open your eyes under water without goggles. PS- I love your long full blond hair.

Thank you for posting the video…one year out how is your vision? What are you doing for precautionary measures for your other eye? I am 5 days post op scleral buckle and silicone oil. Both of your videos were very helpful.

Please give us another update. I've just had a scleral buckle procedure completed, with cryo + SF6 gas bubble. My surgeons were world-class, and prognosis was completely successful. Recovery has been very good, actually faster than anticipated. I cannot thank my doctors enough!

I am glad you are recovering and have regained your eyesight. I went through similar experience. On Black Friday of 2022 I woke up with floaters on my right eye; a co-worker had had floaters and was treated with steroids and eye drops. That Sunday I woke up, and could not see out of my right eye. On December 22, 2022 I had eye surgery and had to sleep face down and keep my face down for a week. I had a gas bubble to maintain pressure on retina and it took roughly 3 weeks for it to go away. I immediately development a cataract and had corrective surgery in October of 2023. I currently can see out of my right eye but the vision is a soft focus. I will need some further procedures to try and improve vision; I hope to regain clear vision but I can see. Good luck to you and everyone out there that goes through this experience.

When your distorted vision gone after surgery

A Cricket ball hit on my right eye due to unawareness as other eye working I couldn't understand loss of vison in other eye so it delayed Maximum 4-5 years that eye started squint extropia then we went to a hospital doctors said it is a Rhegmatogenuous Retinal detachment and they did surgery and in the subsequent surgery they also removed silicone oil and catract was formed that surgery also done successfully and Vision restored to 20/100 Recently after 14 years again suddenly vision lost in the right eye due to same Rhegmatogenous Retinal detachment again retina detached so they did surgery and removed silicone oil within 1.5 month I don't know why again retina got detached so again RRD surgery done post this surgery Sudden IOP increase 54mmg and immediately visited Hospital they reduced it immediately and im thinking this iop increase is due silicone oil in the eye In the next visit retina doctor told me my optic nerve is weak and doctor is uncertain till we remove silicone oil she said But im thinking due to silicone oil it temporarily stopped optic nerve function Now vision in that eye is HM+ only After removing silicone oil Can i see improvement in vison? Any possibility for significant improvement??? Any other advancement to restore vison in this cases possiblity or hope of future? Address first question after silicone oil removal vison improvement possiblity as I told I have visited hospital immediately with 24-48 hours as pressure increase and managed IOP I'm using drops also now to control IOP it's under control As retina attached with silicone oil and my restricted to HM+ only I don't know what happened to optic nerve

im 24 as well and had buckle, bubble, and laser done due to how severe the detachment was so im very worried how my recovery is going to be and im glad your recovery has gone well so far

Hi dear I just watched your video it’s very inspiring my sister she did her surgery may 1 for retinal detachment for the right eye 👁️ it’s healing but she worried the size of the eye look smaller do you think it’s gone be normal like you ? Please answer my question she is so nervous

Omg! I had retina detachment in both eyes literally last month and underwent 3 total surgeries. June 28th left eye scleral buckle (emergency surgery) , right eye July 8 (scleral buckle - emergency surgery) and back into my left eye again July 16 for vitrectomy with oil! Now healing, my left eye I can see farther without glasses and my right eye my vision is the same before surgery.. I realized my prescription is different and will likely need to change (also I’m 23!)

ChemE can do/work at Systems engineering ?

Had sclero buckling 6 years ago and now I am scheduled for cataract surgery on the same eye For reference my age is 39

Hi Lauren, I had a parallel experience. My biggest complaint was that the surgeon was only concerned about the retina staying attached. I had 3 surgeries, the last one 15 months ago and it was a scleral buckle. I had 20/25 prior to the surgery. For many months it was 20/50, then 20/40 and for the last 3-4 months 20/30 which is better than I hoped, as they thought 20/40 may be the best possible. I also seeked a second opinion because I saw waviness instead of straight lines. While the first surgeon was not concerned (again all he cared about being attached), on the first visit to the second surgeon, he told me that I had a wrinkled tissue under the retina which caused the waviness and no amount of drops would take care of it. I needed a surgery, but compared o the previous ones, this was much simpler and I had great results as 2-3 weeks after the surgery , 90% of the waviness was gone. I wish they would have done the scleral buckle after the first detachment, but they seem to do it in steps (not sure if insurance plays a part in it). I don’t know about you, but I literally have PTSD from all the detachments (3 in one and 2 on the other years ago) and I check my vision way too much, I even have a vision chart in my office!. I wish you the best!

OMG thank you for this. I just had surgery 5 days ago and sitting here with the bloodshot eye. Thank you for all this positive feedback. ❤❤

Hi! I just saw ur video on ur retinal detachment surgery and I'm scheduled to get the same surgery on Monday and I was wondering is your eye completely healed now? I'm nervous about getting the surgery since I'm just scared about how the post op is going to be for me and how my eye will be during that time. Would you say your vision is almost normal now?

Thanks for sharing your journey. This is super helpful for anyone going through the same procedure. I’m day three post op and my experience thus far has been identical including initially not being able to open my “good eye”. This is not a fun surgery but knowing what to expect from your experience has definitely helped reduce the stress of recovery. Thank you!

Hi. I had the same surgery as you but I am only 2 weeks post surgery. How long did you sleep on your side? Do you still sleep on your side?
