Hi gramquilter 2
I had the surgery on 23rd August. Bruising took a few days to come out but I had a very red eyeball from the day after. Mind you, I do bleed very easily due to a tiny little eye disorder. Over here, we have to wait 6 weeks for another eye test and new glasses. As I wore glasses, I have blanked off the eye which works well and rely on the bad eye for reading! Gives me a headache or 2 but new glasses in 2 weeks.
Here's hoping you recover well too.
I found hand sewing made my eyes ache a bit so I stayed away from it until last week but was able to use the machine within a few days, but could not do it for long as it was straining my eyes because of the glasses problem.
