To the hospital this afternoon, for more work on my eyes.


They are going to use a laser to seal up the leak in my left eye. Yes, that's right, someone is going to go into my eye with a sharp, pointy beam of light. And you know how I feel about sharp pointy things :-(

What they did not tell me before I had it done the first time was that the laser shuts down vision in the eye for a couple of minutes after the treatment finishes. I had a moments panic that they had blinded me. It does come back first as a deep red and slowly the rest of the spectrum. I had little or no pain during the treatment but afterwards it felt like I had been hit in the eye with a blunt object perhaps a thrown tennis ball. Good luck

Thanks for the warning.
