Glick. I now have to put Prednisolone in both eyes, and Atropine Sulfate in my left.
Damn. Missed. Repeat! On target, fire for effect!
Yes, I hate eye drops, but if I make a game of it...
Last night, I had to put an ointment on my eye. I'm the kind of guy who freaks when they do the pressure test at the doctor's office, and I have to touch my own eye? Blearagh! I did it, eventually, but I hated it.
Can't I just do chemotherapy again?

All in favor, say Eye!
Had me second appointment with the eye clinic. The good news is that my left-eye vision has improved from 20/150 last week to 20/40 today. Right is constant at 20/25, which is about where it has been for decades. My glasses still are useless for anything but long-range work. I'm being referred to a specialist in uveitas. Wee.
Of course, this couldn't have been timed worse. We are planning on moving by June, and need every dime to get the new place and move. So having new meds to pay for, extra doctor appointments to make.. it's a big drain on the finances. And I still haven't heard anything from SSA.
According to the doc, I've broken up about half the scarring (!) on my left iris. Hopefully, more will get knocked off as I continue the eye drops. But I know that I'm going to need new glasses when this is over. Yet another expense. We'll have to see if our insurance covers glasses,,,
I am really tired of being sick all the time. Could someone stop the world? I want to get off here.
