[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2319130, member: 372717"] My 90 year old T2 (for a decade) dad, hba1c low 50s when unmedicated (low carbing) had his annual diabetic eye test a month ago. He was told that all was well. He's now received a new appointment at a different hospital for a second "different" eye test. He's already phoned them once to be told it's a different test, but is going to try again. (He's not keen on the hospital because he has mobility issues and it requires a lot of walking, and he has been heavily covid shielding so would prefer not to visit hospital at all if it can be put off till after a covid vaccine). So, any suggestions on what could be going on here? Why a second test if the first is fine? Testing for glaucoma? [/QUOTE]
