    Hi Peter
    Glad the thumb is showing improvement. It may take time but certainly going in the right direction.
    My wife was at the opticians last week and was told she will probably need a cataract operation sometime in the future so your experience is encouraging.

      So pleased to hear of your improved health Peter, keep on doing those exercises.
      Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

            I checked mine, and I can only manage about 45 degrees, so in reality you don't have as far to go.

                  Peter, please, be careful: do not bend your eye every 2 hours and wet your thumb 4 times per day! :tongue-out3:
                  Banter aside, I'm glad your on the full recovery route on both fronts.

                      Excellent news Peter! Glad everything is going well in your favor. Now you won't need a tune-up for the next 100 years....

                      As far as the thumb movement goes, I'm with Garry and Gerry. None of my 10 thumbs bend more than 45° either.............

                      Prost

                        in that case, I've only 32 degrees to go.
