Intentional Laser Damage

Posted on Friday, July 17th, 2026

Dave!Having lasers shot into your eye sounds very cool. And, if it's keeping you from losing (more) of your eyesight, it most definitely is.

But not as cool as shooting lasers out of your eyes, surely.

As of today, it looks like I may be done with lasers for a while. The latest imaging shows that the intentional laser damage is scarring over nicely. This will hopefully keep my retina from shredding apart any further. All the green dots in this photo along the top are where lasers burned holes in my eye...

Scarred Retinas in my eyeball!

Now it's just a matter of time until I find out how much of my eyesight will come back. The hope is that once the blood which has settled at the bottom is absorbed and all the tissue which exploded has either disintegrated (or my brain learns to ignore it) that I'll be kinda-sorta-mostly visually normal. Whatever that is.

Until then, I see like this...

Blurry spotty right eye

Which, as you can imagine, is headache-inducing because the spots and blurry bits are always moving around.

It's best if I don't wear my eyepatch so my brain can get a handle on how things are and try to adapt a bit... but it's sometimes easier if I wear it for a while so my head doesn't split open.

In other news, if I ever start a band, it's definitely going to be called Intentional Laser Damage.
