Hi
I was diagnosed with retinopathy a while back, I've seen 2 different doctors who 'kept an eye on it' when I was seen approx 6 weeks ago I was advised further change would require treatment. At my appointment on Monday the consultant advised I would need treatment urgently. My right eye was injected with Eyelea and I'm going back this week to have the left eye done. Then I'm in for laser too!
Just wondering if anyone else has been through this or similar? I'm 24 and the thought of potentially going blind is petrifying!
