Help needed for medical expenses

Donation protected
On March 12, 2016, my left eye started hurting. By midnight, i I couldn't open the eye and the left side of my face was racked by pain. I went to Texas Med Clinic that morning and by that same night, in the ER. Later that week, I was diagnosed with the much more rare form of Angle Closure Glaucoma in both eyes, with the left being acute due to the high pressure that had risen so quickly in it. I had two laser iridototomy procedures to both eyes that week, but because the pressure had gotten so high in the left eye, I have suffered vision loss to my optic nerve and at this time, they are doubtful I will regain full sight to the eye. Where some see tunnel vision, I can see peripheral but not straight out of the eye. It has made working on a computer all day extremely hard for me. I am fortunate to be seeing a specialist at the UT Medicine Health Science Center of San Antonio, but I am overwhelmed with medical bills, lost a lot of time from work without pay and have been put on FMLA indefinitely at this point. FMLA won't kick in for two weeks and pays only 60% from that point on.....This is extremely hard for me to reach out and do, but I have no other options at this point. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated while I get treatments, doctor visits, and testing until I am able to find out the end result and get back on my feet again. Prayers as well, please!
