Night time vision did improve a little. Sight recovery after bright light was much better. Always had light sensitive eyes…even getting ’sun sneezes’ that got slightly worse.
Everyone will have different results, my sister got a starlight effect from the oncoming car lights drove her nuts at first…got used to it quickly. Hope it all goes well for you.

Anywho…yes that snow was the whitest fluffiest stuff I’ve seen in a long time. It came from the east…Lake Huron water, not the nasty stuff from the other side.
