Hi there, may I ask what treatment you had and how long did it take to improve? It's good it can improve as I wasn't sure tbh, yep I think I'm due a field test at my next follow up on the 16th!
Oooh, let me think. Started about 4/5 years back. Optitians discoverd something was up. They asked for my GP's address, he referred me to the hospital..
The issue initially was in the right eye. So, I had a course of 6 shots (1 a month.) of Lucentis? Then during monitoring. I needed another 4. But this time eylea.. At this point because I wasn't having treatment in both eyes I didn't need to declare to DVLC.
Then the kicker, I needed it in the left eye too.. I had a course 4 shots in the left eye & possibly 2 in the right?? I was starting to loose count. Lol, I would show up for an appointment at the ophthalmology department & it was just a scan for retinopathy? (All clear on that.) I renewed my licence February this year, so had to do the "vision field test."
I don't think I've needed any treatment since last year?? (I've seriously lost track of it.)
I just go for the scans every 4 to 6 months. & grab the appointments with both hands....
They were pretty much every 4 weeks I either had to be walked to the ward next door for a jab or not.
I was meant to go for a check up last April? But they cancelled on me due to the C19 mularkey..
Yep, it's improved immensely for me. Even with corrective vision, no more "pinch & zoom," no more using the camera on my phone to blow up the "small print."
I realy should chase them up...
