Post-Op Eye Treatment

Three weeks ago next Tuesday I had the surgery on my right eye. All goes well with that and it appears to have healed completely. The vision in that eye is good and way ahead of what it was before the operation.

The only tiresome aspect of the post operative treatments are the eye drops. And how many times a day you have to take them.

There are three different drops -- and to help the patient with vision problems each bottle cap is a different color. It began with taking the white cap drops four times a day; the pink capped one six times a day; the gray one once a day. That's a total of 11 applications daily. After two weeks the total was reduced to 7 per day. Next week it goes down to 5 a day.

For a while it seemed every time I turned around it was time for another eye drop.
