I had the same thing happen to me as the pilot. I have night blindness and need the brightest light indoors and out to see and still do not see as well prior to surgery with contacts or glasses. If I were a pilot I would get millions too. Apparently, being a single mom of two boys who needs to drive them places at night and needs to drive home from work at night doesn't entitle me to a lawsuit. I can't drive on the highway anymore because my dominant eye was changed from right to left during an enhancement surgery. I did not know what effect this would have on me. I was told my night blindness would get better. It did not and my eye sight continues to regress. I used to be a very attractive 43 year old. Because of the turmoil of this surgery and the effects it has on my life, I have gained 50 pounds. I am now trying to lose weight and deal with this disability. My pupil size also changed as a result of this surgery. I had large pupils in bright light before and my pupils would extend to almost the entire width of my iris in the dark; now it only extends half way and the bigger the pupil gets in dimmed light the harder it is to see.
