Currently going through lots of tests to image the eyes. I'll post when results they come back.
update:
Well my left eye has 3 tumors in it. One is causing most of the fluid to build up behind the retina. The laser topography shows a pretty large amount of fluid the is the culprit of the distortion.
The plan is to due laser surgery on Tuesday to burn the 3 tumors. This will hopefully stop the main tumor from creating as much havoc. By burning these tumors that are off to the peripheral vision I will loose these areas of vision forever but in the process try to save the main central focus area.
It seems a bit hard to imagine that by burning the tumor it will help dissipate the fluid build up but this is the first choice the doctor gave. There are options of doing radiation to the entire eye or a more complicated procedure where they can focus radiation to hit the tumor more directly.
The current state of my vision is no better, with the right eye closed I am unable to even identify someones face.
Post surgery I wont know for a few weeks even if it has worked, because I have to wait for the eye to naturally drain.
Just checked your blog after posting a comment on your FB. I wish you luck on your surgery on Tuesday. You are on my thoughts and prayer ...
