Some may wonder why I have not posted more groups that I have shot.
It was a problem about my eyes and problems 8 months ago I was diagnose with Fuchs’ dystrophy
Fuchs’ dystrophy is a type of eye disease that affects the cornea. Your cornea is the dome-shaped outer layer of your eye that helps you see.
It was like looking though a bottle of water could no longer see target to shoot at and that ended my shooting Until a month ago I had a cornea transplant
The really good news I AM BACK can see once again to shoot
I am one happy camper :ANAL:

Glad to hear you are back and it sounds like good as new.
Sad to say my eyes are getting worse and worse like so many of us, just another part that is wearing out with age. :(

That's GREAT news, buddy. Happy times ahead. Must have felt absolutely bloody awful.
Did that happen in both eyes?

Now that's one heck of a story. Glad it has a happy ending.

My eyesight has suffered from astigmatism since childhood. Had operations .. they even scooped out my eyes to stretch nerves. This was to keep them straight.

Needless to say, despite not being a great shot, I'm glad to be able to actually shoot.

To suffer to the point of not being able to would be heart breaking.

Glad you are back at it. From one sufferer of eye related issues to another ... congrats. :)
