Sounds like you've got your hands full? 
Serous-ly I hope things work out for you and it goes away on it's own...good luck!

I'm sure you'll be OK in a few months. Meanhwile, make sure your doctor rules out the possibility of a detached retina. (That requires immediate treatment.)
BTW, corrected link[^].
Good luck and a speedy recovery. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

At least we now know he is male, white and between the ages of 20 to 50...

That's great!

Hi _Maxxx_, Empathies to you; I'm struggling with eye problems right now, myself.
How's your confidence level in the doctor(s) who diagnosed you ?
In my own experience, a year ago, I had a severe (supposedly rare) abreaction to a medicine I was prescribed to help with my chronic (post-cancer survival) insomnia (non-narcotic, non-barbiturate, non-addictive, etc.); among the reactions were dizziness, increase in tinnitus levels, edema, peripheral neuropathy, muscle spasms, and rapid impairment of vision.
I hope and trust you have good medical resources that help you examine your "lifestyle in totality" to put this problem in context of your age, stress-levels, health, immune-response, current medications (and their possible interactions), patterns of exercise, diet, and your modal use of your eyes on average, etc.
to your health, bill

No longer do I have my favourite icon on the left of the tool bar (CP), Google in it's non evil way has shoved an Apps icon there, piss off.
The blasted thing is not in the toolbar management and I therefore I can't delete the dammed thing or move it to oblivion. I don't use your apps, I can't use your apps from work so get the f*** out of the premier position on tool bar, that is reserved for something useful dammit!

Right-click, and uncheck "Show Apps Shortcut"?

Thank you put CP back where it belongs. I love it when a good rant pays off!

and why the hell does the new tab page look now like the google home page? 
I used it for and only for my most visited pages (of which the thumbnails are now significantly smaller). If I want to search for something I type it in the omnibox...

Is it worth the update? Does it bog down old devices like Android updates do?

I think it is excellent: like the new look. I have a 4s and it appears to eat the battery so had to switch off loads of stuff (most of which you would turn off anyway).

Meh. Cheese was moved. I kind of like the look, and it hasn't seemed to slow down my machine (an iPad 2). Main decisions points would be can your machine actually be upgraded (can't find the URL but I know that my iPod Touch couldn't be upgraded), and does that security flaw[^] bother you.

Yep - got it and I like it about 95%.
Much, much easier to get to stuff but far too stark and a little hard on the eyes.
Soften it about 10% and it'll be great.
My favourite part is the delicious irony of Apple using the Glass and Metro looks. That's definitely my favourite bit.

OK, I got it too. You're right, way too much white. At least I can turn down the brightness now and save the battery.
Other than that, pretty slick! I particularly like the how Safari works. The control center is also handy.
Overall, I think it is quite an improvemt, though It'll take some time to get used to.
Update
Just noticed the task switcher. Nice, but they imitated Android! Flip to remove. Ha!
Not complaining, it's better if all devices behave in a similar manner.

After installing it, I somehow ended up with more usage space than before.

Check that it didn't delete all media that you didn't buy through itunes.

All my iTunes media are still there.

Installed/upgraded it yesterday.
No real issues; some small little new things to (re)learn.
Will disable a couple of cute gizmos (the parallax things) to save up on battery, but all is working well.

old devices will not support all the new iOS7 features, so it should not be that big an issues with older iPhone/iPod/iPad.

Yes, Of course. It is just awesome. The new UI changes are mind blowing.
I am in love with the Siri feature. Still a lot of things to explore.

Going by the comments on my Facebook feed; women and simpletons love it, Fanbois are trying to talk it up with less conviction than normal, everyone else says it is trying to copy Android and Windows as well as removing the need to do anything to use all the battery up.
So. Situation normal.

The new look and feel is great! But...
I immediately found it to feel slower and less responsive.
On the iPad home screen, switching from portrait to landscape and back, I can clearly feel a jagged laggy-ness to it, the smoothness is gone.
I would like to turn off the frosted glass and the 3D wallpaper effects to improve performance, anybody know how?
