Panretinalphotocoagulation in 1994 for proliferative retinopathy. Some 3,000 zaps. A bit of edema a few years later that zapping fixed. Close watch on dangling vessels in left eye starting around 2004. Hemmhorrage in left eye Aug. 2006. Continued hemming left me legally blind by Oct. Vitrectomy late Oct. Good for a year, but I've had 4 small bleeders since. Two I saw and two optho found and zapped. He never found where I was bleeding from.

I still maintain 20/20 in both eyes and I've dropped my A1C's down to the low 6's for the past two years.

Currently no signs of trouble!

Hi I have full laser therapy then vitrectomy. Now my eye is ok:)) and I still have a very good vision. I see ten rows on the eye table. So I don't need even glasses:))))

I just checked in to see what was up,. What was up was that I was reminded that ! was over-due for my annual checkup with the laser eye doc (AKA ohthalmologist). Well, it is time to make that phone call Monday!!).. Last one was Jan 16, 2007.
