Break from blogging........

Today I had what was supposedly my final eye check up for my cataract surgeries. This week I had been having porblems with both my eyes and I was going to ask a lot of questions. So at 1:30 I was at the eye clinic and having the check up and I complained about the problems I was having.

My doctor decided to do a bit more checking up and found I had torn retina, not just a small tear but quite big that I had an emergency laser surgery. I went straight from the eye clinic straight to the retina clinic and had it done.

Again I am trying to heal and I have decided not to blog for two weeks or until both eyes have completely healed.. If I had not complained about what I was feeling, the tear could have turned into detached retina and I could have gone blind. That sort of scared me but was told by my retina specialist that at times this happens after cataract surgery. I have to be careful and make sure I see the doctor right away if I experience any symptons of any kind and get to the doctor right away.

Thanks to Raquel who picked me up at the clinic after the surgery and drove me home. I really appreciated what you have done and made sure I have dinner. Both my eyes are blurry at the moment.

Will be back once I am ok.
