[QUOTE="tigerlily72, post: 966879, member: 38433"] [SIZE=4]I had my first appointment with the DSN last Friday. Today, an appointment has arrived in the post for my retinal screening. This is going to sound silly but do they [I]HAVE [/I]to put eye drops in or can they do the screening without doing this at all? My eyes are quite sensitive and I can't put anything in them and the thought makes me go cold. It's for the same reason I can't contemplate wearing contact glasses as I'm too squeamish although I'd like to. I know I should go but I'm kind of wavering at the moment. I did have a full eye test earlier this year as part of my 2 yearly check and this included retinal screening and checks and a new prescription as my right eye had changed a bit (but nothing serious).[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
