Re: Eyes
Think i have posted but just a reminder that i go in for my Left Eye Op on Tuesday the 9th March at Lithgow Eye Clinic!
Got another letter Yesterday with all the particulars of what and what knots!
Also attached was a Script for Two type of Eye Drops ( Maxidex and Tobrex) to be inserted Three times a day after the Op for three Weeks. Also Eye Ointment once a day in the Evening before Bed for a Week only, a Post Op care is to be had the Following day , with another visit in three Weeks from then. Gees!what a palava! LOL
So from the 9th March for i guess a few days i will not be on the Site, as the Eye needs to be rested.
Those that have this will know !
Cheers
I am Happy at last but also a wee bit anxious! ??
