Yeah, so this month has been pretty intense. I have glaucoma and, recently, my eye pressures have been NOT GOOD. But I have a most excellent team of my local optometrist, my GP, my ophthalmologist and his amazing team. They pulled out all the stops, and really got...
...on top of things, going out of their way to have conversations outside of appointment times. Cutting a long story short, I saw my ophthalmologist on the first of October to plan management going forward. I complained about my vision at the same time, and he called it...
...he looked at me, and said "let's do something about those cataracts." Which included injecting stents into the eyes, to relieve intraocular pressue. He did the informed consent thing, then shoved me in front of his business manager - first operation was on the fourteenth...
...and the second on the twentieth, so eight days ago. I now have crystal clear vision, but with some hang-on effects from the surgeries, in that it's screwing with my Addison's disease, and am currently on the cusp of an ocular migraine.
