I just found out I have to have emergency eye surgery in my right eye or ill lose sight in it. Basically my vission had a blur spot and everything looked bent for like 4 days So I went to a regular doc yesterday and everything was good to go. So I see an eye doctor today and my retina is bleeding. I go to a specialist tomarrow. So like experiences, things to look out for ect? ---

> [@Fry](#): > > Good luck though. Did they say what the odds are of permanent damage? Or what caused this? I go to the specialist about it tomarrow to find out more, the eye doctor said theres alot of causes. Also the eye doctor said, the damage that’s already done could stay forever.

I had surgery on my eye 8 years or so ago. Had a loose muscle in the back of my eye, they had to fix it, couldn’t open it for a few days but it didn’t take too long to recover. ---
