Eye clinic recall

Hi Kat

Of course it's OK to worry, anyone would be anxious to be recalled. But it is a sign they are taking your eyes seriously, and if there is an issue they'll have caught it early.

Remember that when you were diagnosed back in 1984 there was probably not a lot that could be done if something went wrong with your eyes. I had that worry too when I was diagnosed. There was no laser then. Things are so different now. Lots of new treatments have been developed in those 30 years.

Hope the appointment goes well for you

I do hope that your appointment goes well tomorrow. I'm currently facing some uncertainty around my vision. I did take some comfort from the following article by an Eye Doctor:

I hope things go well for you tomorrow.

Hi Type2_2000
What a great article that is. Thanks for sharing it

Far from being stupid Kat, the two things I worry about first and foremost are my eyes and my cardiovascular health, every time I attend the eye clinic I worry days before even though I've been trouble free for 8 years now.

You say you've been recalled, had you attended the Ophthalmology clinic recently and they have asked you to come back or was something picked up during a routine screening?
