Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bluetit1802" data-source="post: 2131160" data-attributes="member: 94045">My tests come on time like clockwork every year. I have had 6 now, all clear. I get to see the computer screen afterwards. The technician or whatever she is has 3 buttons to press after the test. Red, yellow or green. These are alerts to those who check the images in the lab. Clearly, the red is for "something is showing", the green is for "nothing suspicious" and the yellow is for "could be something suspicious". It is some sort of triage to put the more suspicious ones at the top of the queue to be looked at first. She has pressed the green on all mine. I get a letter a few weeks later with the results.The drops sting me briefly and make my eyes water a bit, but then I'm OK and don't seem to have any problems with reacting badly to light or blurriness, although my glasses are reactive ones, so that probably helps. Others make sure they have sun glasses to wear when they leave.</blockquote>
