The actual vision hasn't worsened at this point, but I'm taking the med with all the awful side effects to reduce optic nerve swelling to prevent more loss. It's just very frustrating. Nobody gets this back a second time much less a 4th time. But there are a very few of us who are atypical.

I will ask my regular ophthalmologist about this the next time I'm there. I haven't been able to read printed material in years due to ghosting, but I guess he has to sign off on it. Thanks for the link. I might not need the equipment now, but eventually, I will have to come up with ideas on how to load Mp3 audiobooks onto my Ipods to listen.
