Gloria, I've known people that have lost a member of their body and they all go through a grief period, too. I've thought that I'd go nuts if it happened to me. I can't imagine not being all there.

Does he know that his other eye will soon learn to compensate for the lost one? It will. I'm thinking that there must be glasses and/or physical therpay he could get to help him.

It's easy for me to say, but maybe you could remind him that it could have been an arm or worse yet, a leg! YIKES!

Encourage him all you can, Hun, and look up either in your phone book or on the web, what would be the next step for him so he can get back in the groove of things. I'm thinking an oculist, (I think that's what they're called!) not an optometrist would have some answers for you.
