Home once again!
Kim came home from the hospital today. She can see MUCH better at a distance than she could prior to the surgery! The odd thing is that now she cannot see as well close-up. The doctors say that it will take approximately a month for her vision to stabilize, so her near vision may improve over time. After a month of recouperation, she can be fitted for glasses. While her vision is definitely greatly improved over what it had been recently, she still has the damage from the macular hole which will never go away... Her vision is approximately 20/400.
