Dude. Dang. Crazy story. I admire how you moved forward from when it happened and being able to find help to now. I've heard if you lose your vision as an adult, its a huge adjustment to learn how to do things with no depth perception. Did you experience this added challenge amid recovery?

That is really interesting to hear. I can understand on a small scale. I was born completely blind in my left eye. (Don't see black, blurry, etc it's nothing) Sometimes I feel too sighted and not sighted enough and still manage to bruise my blind side when I'm tired. Hah. Has the accident stopped you from doing anything you used to be able to do? And is there any chance your brain injuries will improve over time?

Update: showed my kids and husband your LEDs and in their words: "That's the coolest thing ever!! I wonder if the tooth fairy has magical eyes like that!!"

The catch thing made me chuckle. Around dusk it's especially difficult for some reason and the glow in the dark balls don't work! 😂 But I completely understand what you mean about reading. It's my favorite thing to do but it does take a lot of energy for sure. For me, more light helps. A spot with bright natural light helps the most!

I can see how the 3D thing would be a huge bummer. We do save the big bucks lol. When my husband wants to see something in 3D I'll sometimes tag along but it does hurt and fatigued more than reading.

I'm sorry to hear that and you are totally right! The brain is freaking amazing. I wouldn't be surprised if your tactile senses become so much stronger than before. It already sounds like you've gotten creative with finding different ways to do things and I'm sure that strengthens other areas as well. Sorry for all the random questions! I've never had the chance to talk to someone who only has vision in one eye. Especially with the journey you've had. If you decided to have kids in the future it makes for a lot of fun times! Have you had any kiddos see you with one of your awesome prosthetics in??
