Brief Answer:
I will not recommend that!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and sorry to hear about this diagnosis.
This disease affects vision. I will not want you to take the risk to keep driving despite not having the best of sight. Legally, visual problems are a reason to stop driving and you are legally not supposed to.
I hope this helps. I wish you a quick recovery and return to work.
