Hi guys!
I wasn't sure that I will be able to write a post in the evening, so in my previous one I promised to tell everything tomorrow. But seems like I'm completely capable of doing it today!:)
So here I'd like to share everything about my first surgery I made today, about six hours ago.
I arrived to the hospital an hour earlier then I should. Since I was really nervous and didn't want to be late, I really miscalculated time. Luckily they had only a few patients, so work with me began immediately.
The first thing I should make was a test to figure out how goo is my peripheral vision. And, spoilers, it's perfect:) Seems like it was the only perfect thing with my eyes.
It's really interesting how this test is performed. You look in the center of hemisphere with one eye. It has a light in the center, and you look at it. In the hands you have a manipulator with one button. Then they turn the lights off, and in different placed inside the sphere lights appear, small dots. But you have to look only straight. Every time you notice the small lights you have to push the button in your hand. So it's really like a computer game:) I passed three circles of it with 100% result. Here is it if you're interested:) All the zeros at the photos reflect the positions of light I saw, for each eye:
Then my preparation for operation itself began. They had to make my eye pupils wide again, so for an hour I was sitting in the hall, and every 15 minutes the nurse put special drops to my eyes. In the end I looked as a demon from Supernatural again. This time I even took a photo after everything was done. Imagine how wide my eye pupils were if on this photo they're already smaller:)
Yep, it's already after operation, and I look like walking dead. Whatever, my first operation is behind!:)
After my pupils got wide I was taken to the doctor. To finally fix my retina, so that later I would be able to make the second operation.
They promised it will not hurt. LIES!
The whole process really took 2-3 minutes, plus 5 minutes for anesthesia. And yes, in the beginning, when they put a lens to fix your eye opened, and first few laser splashes are painless. But all the others... Oh my God, it feels like someone is trying to get your eye outside your scull. Great that it really doesn't take long.
When anesthesia stops acting you feel thread in your eyes. And bonus effect, all objects that radiate light have a aureole around them. So if at normal state I see lights of cars, for example, like this:
After surgery you see like this:
But it's a temporary effect.
Now I have two weeks to prepare for the next surgery. Thank you everyone who supports me in this complicated period, you're the best, guys!
I wish you all the best and will be happy if you'll support me with vote:)
Love, Inber
Awesome very glad to hear it is going well! That hazy look has got to be the best lol

Oh, I see. My first guess was that may be you're a pilot:) It was the first time in my life I passed such test, I even didn't knew it exists:)
My insurance doesn't pay for such cases:(

I really hope so! Important that now I'm still able to draw, after the second one I will not be for a week or so. So now I'll put all effort to draw "in advance", don't want to break my every day posting tradition:)

Great, however think first about your health because money will always come !!! so even if you post 3 times a week ( Like me, I post 3 times a week) after your eye operation, you will still be great and then when your eye heals well then you can be posting once a day!!! Heath is wealth

Seems like it worth it. Of course I will know later, but since at the moment I feel quite fine - at least I didn't break anything. Now for two weeks I'm not allowed to do any physical activity, but... I'm still allowed to draw:)

I hope your sight comes back to normal and you're not seeing glowing objects when you look at computer screens or phones!
Just think about how awesome your art will look in the future after this process is done!? You'll be able to see (and draw) even more details :)
