  1. Thanks Ed! steve
  2. Bill, Sorry to hear about your trouble. I suffered a detached retina about 14 years ago and had the 'bubble' operation. Whilst it is right b*ll ache doing the head down thing it does get better. Mine was totally cured and sight restored. Incidentally, I too was/am short sighted. Down the line you may get cataracts. My eye doc told me I would and he was right. However, a couple of quick ops soon cured them. Incidentally, neither the retina op or the cataract ones caused any pain, only some mild discomfort for a while. I'm grateful to our UK National Health Service, as none of this cost me penny. Hoping it all goes well for you. steve
