First scleral lenses fitting (need encouragement/advice)

I was diagnosed with KC in January and had epi off CXL to both eyes in March and April. I had my first scleral lenses fitting yesterday and need some encouragement. It took my optometrist (who specializes in cornea diseases and scleral lenses) about 10 tries to get them in my eye because I just could not keep my eye open and still. She was even about to use a speculum but eventually was able to get them in with just some numbing drops.

when she finally got them in and showed me how I will see with my adjusted prescription it was like seeing the world for the first time!! She was able to get my vision from 20/100 to 20/25!!

I just need some reassurance that getting them in and out will get easier (cause right now that feels impossible) and also maybe some advice if you have any! I am so so afraid I won’t be able to put them on my own or even worse.. not be able to take them out

First Blue Jay!! (But a pesky sparrow scared it away :/)

So excited I got my first blue jay today enjoying a drink from the birdbath! But of course the pesky house sparrow living in our yard scared it away 🤦🏻‍♀️ does anyone have any tips to keep sparrows away/ less territorial?

Camera will not connect

I bought my dad a Birdfy bird feeder 4k camera for Father’s Day. The day we attempted to set it up was the day the server was down (bad timing). Once the app was updated we attempted to connect the camera. When connecting to WiFi the camera states “WiFi connected, enjoy your birding life” but the app is saying that WiFi connection failed. He already has the Birdfy bird bath camera and that connected to WiFi no problem, so I know it’s not my WiFi. Could this be caused by the servers being down?/does anyone have an advice how to fix this problem?
