Don't hesitate.

If you get on top of declining vision early enough, there is a better chance the doctors can stop the decline in vision. Depending on what's going on, anyway.

For macular degeneration, maybe not, but for other types of eye problems yes.

I am glad your story is happy. Happy for you!
