I am a retired Ophthalmologist.
That's hugely impressive, nefertiti.
While I've got you here, pinned to the cork-board so to speak, can you give me some eye-ball advice?
Yes?
Well that's very kind of you.
(Did you marry a lawyer to handle your botched cases when they would go to a Compensation Court? Don't answer that. I was just toying with certain possibilities of a cynical nature, and these musings were not supposed to go to print here. Feel free to read Freediver a Victim Impact Statement at your earliest convenience).
But I digress.
Less than 2 months ago my optometrist ran my eyes through some sophisticated tests using a
very modern and very expensive electronic machine.
The pressure in my left eyeball has increased since I had the same test done a few short years ago. It's gone from 20-something to 30-something pressure.
She said she'll send me to a specialist - I think in your field - to make a decision about what should be done about it.
And then things blew sky-high and I no longer have anything to do with her or that office. They made me wait an entire month before I finally picked up the phone to ask them where the hell were the spectacles I had ordered from them ~ only to be told their supplier in China had told them (weeks ago) that they could only grind lenses for those narrow 'letter-box'-type frames.
Dear Jesus.
And so now I'm just swinging in the breeze, wondering what to do next.
