That's a bummer. I guess your forum user-name says it all...

It could be worse, you could have a wart on your nose with hair growing out of it![Beer] (something my brother always used to tell me)

Keep our chin up. I was told I have glaucoma at age 26. And it wasn't and isn't used for a MMJ card.

I have a spot in the right eye, just upper right of center. you get used to it after a while and then you wont notice it as much. At first the damn thing bugged the shit out of me, good luck,

I gotta say, I respect your no-pity, take-it-as-it-comes approach. I wish more of our countrymen were like you. Best of luck.[Beer]

No cause as yet
They dd all sorts of tox test,even a lyme disease
Great BP
Shet happens ,,you can never truely prep for.
Bigger problem is trying to "snap-in",,may need to get a stag lefty upper.
Shouldn't really need too,,instructed plenty off southpaws as a USMC pmi,,on the A2

That sucks but at least you still have use of the eye.

There are left hand rifle options. Switching isn't that hard.
