just_cydBack to the eye doc today for non-dilation testing: The Octopus. I've faced this beast a bunch, but it's usually just the blinky-light portion. Today I got the blinky-lights, plus the Space Invaders Centipede as well.
The good news is that things look pretty good, especially when compared to 10 years ago when things went sideways for a while.
The not so good news is that there's still some vision loss in the lower/inner quadrant of my right eye, but nothing like before. So what the tests show don't match up with what I'm describing. Spot is at roughly the 10 o'clock position in my right eye, not the 7 or 8 o'clock position.
Because these tests thus far are negative, I'll be back in 4-6 weeks for another round, and then we'll see if an MRI is necessary. No, I'm not pushing for it now, because 2024's deductible is a LOT lower.
in other vision news, my glasses are not ready. Doubt I'll see them before the new year even though I was promised two weeks. It also involved three phone calls because the lady couldn't find me in the system. i'm curious how my vision will be with progressives that have the bifocal starting at the proper spot rather than ridiculously low.
