Hi all. I was just diagnosed with Fuchs dystrophy yesterday when I visit a corneal specialist. It is really frustrating bc I am just in my 30's, and the doctor said there's no way to stop it and finally I will need a transplant or surgery in my 50's or 60's. My cell count is very low for my age, about 2070 for both eyes, but normal thickness. Currently I don't have any strong signs of the disease but just see glares of street lights at night. I am wondering how much is the chance that I don't get so severe with the problem in 20 years, or how long does it take for my situation to feel pain or needs to go surgery?
Thank you for any answer.
