This story will be temporarily iinterrupted because I suffered from retinal detachment (dutch: netvlies loslating) and had to have an emergency operation. Now I am awaiting impatiently if and how my vision will be restored. Hope to see you soon (literally...)

Hopefully they got to it quickly, time is the major factor as to whether near complete restoration of sight will occur.

Ahw, that's some horrible news. Seems painful to me also. Anyway, I wish you all of the best during the recovery and hopefully your sight will recover as much as you want to!

I got very good news a few days ago: my vision will be restored, it might be a bit worse in the right eye, but that won't hamper too much. That right eye is now healthy again, but not stable yet. So I am struggling a bit with looking closeby, looking on a computer and looking far away and I am also having headaches and an irritated eye in the morning. But within a few months this should recover completely.

I can tell you that living with one eye is very, very difficult and it took a long time to adjust a bit. Especially as you can't really practice with one eye only as it is hard to unlearn when vision is restored. I have gotten serious respect for people who have the live with one eye.

The restored vision also means I can continue with my real life sport table tennis. I otherwise would have to give that up as well as this is a sport that really can't be done with one eye.

In a way I feel reborn again so I had a little party a few days ago, enjoying an "Enfant terrible" beer from the "Dochter of the Korenaar". The child was not terrible at all, however the headache the day after was.
