More medical whinging…
Written by
GOT to see a doc tomorrow. For the last 5 or 6 weeks, I’ve been getting very gritty, dry, sore eyes; worryingly, I’m also getting periods of blurred vision.
So my already poor eyesight is further reduced. Today I can’t read a book or newspaper without a magnifier and can’t make out much of the what’s happening on the TV screen (or anywhere I look). I’m thanking the Whatever for the technology that enables me to increase the font size of text on my computer. At the moment, I’ve got the screen font size up to something like 18pt – it’s just readable.
But at least I’m able to read something here; not being able to read properly is driving me spare.
Googling has told me that my problem is almost certainly Dry Eye Syndrome (which is common in postmenopausal women – sigh).
So, it’s off to the surgery tomorrow for a proper diagnosis and hopefully, something that will reduce the soreness and blurring.
