    Thank you for being brave enough to share your story. Folks are so ignorant & rude.
    It's not cheap @ all.
    The first contacts, I had were made in the Philippines because my prescription couldn't be done the US.
    I have been truly blessed. Not by (Never by my ethnic group).
    All I received from the majority of them was cold,callous ignorance & rudeness.
    I came to expect it. Until this day, whatever rudeness comes my way from them , it's no longer a shock.😮
    It's something like a disappointment, if there is compassion, courtesy & kindness from them.😮😂😂
    While, I don't have the same condition as you, my vision is not perfect.
    I struggled my entire life I was blessed to have a surgery in 2007 pro bono with all follow up treatment.
    After the surgery underwent painful injections in my eyes, but your vision is worth it.

      Thank you!! It's kind people like you who have helped give me courage & encouragement to speak my truth.
      I am gonna keep you in my prayers. I am not touched by, ( forgive me) by most black folks situations, because I have caught more hell from, been treated worse by the majority than anyone.
      I understand your situation, because I have not the same diagnosis, but still not perfect vision.
