So what happened? Well, I've had better days. My visit to Mass Eye And Ear on Wednesday revealed that my eayes are not any better. And, in fact, have gotten a little worse. What does that translate into? It means that my eye meds have been stepped up and I need to try an eye medication that I was doing before but gave up because it was hurting my eyes even though it appeared to make my eyes better. Likewise, the doctor wishes me to consult with the doctor who is the pioneer of the sclero-lens - a special contact lens designed for people who suffer from dry eye. It's not a given that it will come to that because my doctor wishes to see me before that visit in order to assess how much(if any) progress is made in the next wonth. Also, I'm dangerously close to being very susceptible to eye infections so my doctor would like to to wear wraparound glasses when I go outside to reduce that possibility. As with all of this, prednisone is playing a big role in all that's happening. What a wonder drug it is! On the bright side, the crocuses are coming up and spring is on the way. New life once again and I get to see it... Bob
