Congrats on making home. At least you’re not a blind blonde. I suspect you need different contacts, as in contact different eye doctors. Either that or they need contacts, both in eyes and in to whom they refer patients.
Glad you are safe–and sound? Well, I know you well enough to know that might be questionable–on a good day. LOL!
I just hate it when you go to a dr. and the first thing they ask you is “What’s the problem?” or as in your case, “What’s going on here?” If we knew that, we wouldn’t need the darn doctor!!!

Does your regular eye guy know what the retina specialist said? Eye Guy might take offense that Ret Spec called him a liar. What Did E.G. see that R.S. did not?
I suppose it would be politically incorrect to suggest an act of patriarchy here so I won’t do that.
Trouble with specialists is that they don’t talk to each other and they don’t see the whole picture, or the whole you. You have to carry around a file cabinet or have some program that consolidates all meds, and diagnostics so they can insert it….where ever….to get the big picture.
Wanda, it is good to know you are legally blonde, like me. Your docs were of no help…perhaps you would have been better off at your gynocologist’s office.
And how much did this non-help cost you? I think we shouldn’t have to pay unless they actually manage to help in some way. Now wouldn’t that change things up. Can you imagine the cures they would suddenly discover if they only got paid for the good results and had to suck up the cost of failures?
I don’t know, Wanda! when I was 13 years old I remember the preacher at church telling all of us boys that thinking about sex would make us go blind.
I’m almost completely blind since yesterday when a friend in Pensylvana posted a photo of the granddaugher of a cousin of his.She had won a bikini-fishing contest sponsored by Bass Pro. she won two tickets and wanted to know if my friend could go with her.He asked his wife and immediately got a tern warning.”Hell no! You are busy that weekend.” My friend posted her info and contact info for any of us who thought we might be free that weekend. Everyone of my male friends has an appointment with eye doctors next week. I really like fishing and I was going to call her but the numbers were too fuzzy for me to read and Camilla refused to dial the number for me. I guess red bikinis are bad for retinas.

hmmm….sounds like a racket to me. Did you at least get a new prescription for contacts that will put you back to 20/20 vision?
Oh Wanda. So glad you made it home safely. What a bunch of hooey! Did they prescribe new contacts? Your story would be funny if it wasn’t so scary.

Makes me cross eyed just hearing about it!
