i feel your pain with the eyesight, i had semi bad eye sight my whole life until age 25 when the army offered me free PRK a form of corrective eye surgery and i had badass vision until now age 34, they did say the process of aging will still naturally damage my eye sight but i thought i had more time than 9-10 years lol i will need to pay out of my own pocket to do it again and i think its about $5000-$7000 ; / worth it to be able to see perfect again.
Sorry about your plant ; /
