Hm, interesting. I had surgery on both eyes in 1991, i.e. 20 years ago, and my sight has been almost perfect until the last 5-6 years or so but is still good. But good to know that it can be re-done if necessary.

Found out that I can have eye surgery to remove scarring after past surgeries. They will also fix some of the misalignment caused by shortened muscles.

that's not good news, that's great news.

Finally managed to get a doctors appointment. Every morning there's a big battle and you have to fight villagers to get an appointment, and today I won.  :viking:

That is interesting to know. I have too much scarring to have more surgery. That is what I have been told for years. It is good to know that something can be done about it.

Yeah, it's like Animal Crossing mixed with gladiators. Then it gets more stressful for the next morning, because more people need a doctor so there's more competition and a more fierce battle.

And you can't make an appointment for the day after, when all is booked?

I didn't know that they could lengthen eye muscles. Apparently they can, these days.

Yes, it is. It's also a bit scary.

Ah, typically. I hope I won't need laser surgery again.  :-\

The surgery has been around for a fair while as far as I know.

Made it through the day without taking a handful of opiates for my hip pain. That is good.

Doc called and set my hip surgery to next month (it was originally scheduled for yesterday). That is not the good part.
