Just relax and wait to see what the doctors say. You’ve already done everything you can do right now. And it sounds like your other is fine, so that’s good.

They will most likely ordinate corticosteroids to you to reduce the swelling. This might reduce the swelling drastically and give you back your full vision. Wish you all the best.

Try not to panic, it's good that there is a specialist that you have been referred to - means that there's likely options out there and not a 'sorry there's nothing we can do". Wishing you the best of luck.

It is normal to be scared. All of us here are cheering for you and hoping you have a quick recovery.

This must be incredibly stressful for you. I have the contact info of a mental health therapist who is familiar with disabilities if you think it would help you.

Went blind when I was a teenager too, feel free to reach out if it would be helpful. Everything you're feeling right now is valid and rational.

Hey, you’ve done the best thing you could have. now just breathe, focus on the positives and wait to hear what the doctors say, then go from there.

Dont be scared. Same here. Was like you do was my gf. But actually now I'm near total and shes total we realise being blind has turned into a blessing. We are both very grateful for our journey. And both feel if we were cured we wouldnt accept it. You'll understand in time if your sight wanes hour perspective and outlook grows.
