Surgery Day!

This morning my dad had his first cornea transplant.

Things went VERY well.

THGGM checked in on him tonight, and he says that he feels no pain at all.

Tomorrow I take him in to have it checked, at which time the patch will be removed.

Until then, he most be very careful not to rub his eye - or any part of his face - as the new cornea is floating on an air bubble in his eye.

My eyes hurt just thinking about it! Since he returned home, I cannot stop rubbing my eyes or touching my face.
