I had an operation to repair a macular hole in my right eye last week. It involved putting a gas bubble in the eye which will take weeks/months to be absorbed.
While I'm very grateful that my sight won't now deteriorate, I can't see very much (like looking through jelly!) so I've taken to walking around with my right eye shut as much as possible like a one eyed Dalek because it's so disorientating.
Now, I really feel for people who are permanently blind in one eye. Does anybody have any experience of this op? Any tips to avoid collisions? Repeating 'Exterminate!' to get people out of the way?!
