I'm not sure if I will ever get used to waking up in the morning and being able to see.

For the previous six years the first thing I did every morning was insert my large rigid skeral contact lenses, without these I couldn't even see what time it was even when holding my alarm clock inches from my eye.

Now two months after the transplant I can see that same alarm clock from the other side of the room, it is incredible.

In 2004 I was diagnosed with keratoconus and over the next few years the condition became increasingly advanced in both eyes, I struggled on but by 2010 my eyesight had deteriorated so much that the only real option was a cornea transplant.
