Things went so-so. My MRI didn't show any new changes. He doesn't expect my vision to improve or worsen. The loss is due to the brain surgery, which went through the visual artery. (I think that's what it is called.)
My assistant recommended that I not mention my difficulty with driving, as losing my license would be a given & I probably wouldn't ever get it back. I feel very "wrong" for with-holding that information from the epi, but I would lose A LOT of parenting time without my license. I just can't give that up ~ so I try to avoid driving as much as possible.
I was upfront about consistently pushing my bf's wheelchair into walls, due to the lack of peripheral vision. My epi said that most people who undergo brain surgery do lose
some of their vision, but
most are unaware of any changes.
We kinda left it at that.
