Hi all.
Hope everybody is doing fine.
I got a Baerveldt implant on my blind eye on Wednesday and am very happy. I do have the obvious discomfort of having had a tiny silicone thing stuck inside it but the real eye pain is gone. Its gone! Oh wow. :D


I can't really be long on the computer but I wanted to post a big THANK YOU to all those who helped me with your advice (I had no idea this could be done!), to Jay for the site.

Gracias. :lol:

Thank you guys.
I am recovering fast.
And feel so happy.
I can't believe the pain is gone.
And that after all I will be able to keep my funny little eye.

Thank you for giving me the power of information.
Blessings to you all.

Big hugs from the caribbean.

Am so glad that you are painfree! It does payoff to checkout all your options before reaching a decision. Am so glad that you were so fortunate to keep your eye. :D

Thank you, Brenda.
Yeah, you were right.
Thanks to your advice and the help of other members of the forum I was able to learn about all the options I had, the risks involved and gathered enough information to tell my Doctor what I wanted to do and thought was best to try.
It was hard though, because the Doctors were reluctant to put the tube on a blind eye.
But they did a great job.
I'm feeling good.
(Wish I had Nina Simone's voice 'cause I really feel like singing that one)

Big hug.

Ursula
