We headed back to the cornea specialist this morning. Jim was so happy to get the bandage off that kept his left eye mostly closed. The doctor removed the contact bandage but put another one on just for protection. We have another appointment next week to see if they can remove that contact. The films just dissolve, usually within 2-5 days. She stressed that his vision will still be blurry - it takes 6 weeks for complete healing. But Jim's vision, even with the blurriness seems somewhat improved, so we are cautiously optimistic!
He got cleared for most activities, although he still has to keep water away from his eye when showering. All of the drops continue as well, but now Jim can put them in himself.
Goggles on, he did some grass cutting this afternoon...
