Yup. I’m slowly going blind. It’s my age and ancestry, too. From 10:30am to 12:15pm, I drove, waited and spoke with the eyeball doctor and staff. The doctor’s handshake was ever so GENTLE. He’s a surgeon, too.
The numbers are 22 on the lazy left eye and 20 on the right eye. That numbers are supposed to mean that it’s borderline glaucoma but not high enough for treatment with surgery and/or eye drops, which is supposed to lower the IOP – Inter-Ocular Pressure.
He suggested I get exercise. I thought to myself: “My eyeballs must be overweight, too.” I have two follow-up appointments on my optic nerves. I saw the photos of the blood vessels, which looked bigger on the left than on the right.
