Patching my eye turned into a big deal...when this started 8 years ago with my big brain bleed...
It was so scary to accept that my eyes no longer worked together and discovered the world of patching.
When I was in the hospital the doc used several layers of gauze pads and then he taped it...
The nurse was giggling in the background letting me know she could fix it so it would be more comfortable.then I used breathe rights in the verticals position for quite awhile. I also used a pirate patch which was way uncomfortable. Hated the strap which hurt my head,it stuck out too much so I could not see much to the left. It was kind of like an eye bra. Wore that forever. Then I switched to tape which felt like I was ripping my skin off all the time,constantly putting it on and off all day. Frustrated beyond belief.
Then one day ,after eight years , I was getting dressed in the locker room and a lady looks at me and she says. Get yourself to Walgreens and buy an eye bandaid... Bingo!!!!
Wow,after eight years, I got it right....
Unbelievable....
