Several of our members are "typical," with their Fuchs' taking 15-25 years to  cause real vision problems. But others develop galloping vision changes, or  begin blister pain even though their vision is still reasonably good. There is no way to predict how Fuchs' will affect the vision or how fast it will progress, if at all.

 Anybody who is diagnosed with Fuchs' should remain calm, learn all they can about the disease and ways to cope with it, and keep a positive attitude. Our  support group is living proof that there IS life after Fuchs, and some of us have found that coping with Fuchs' has brought us blessings as well as  frustration.
