Today I went back fo the weekly check up only to discover that the eye pressure had jumped from 4 to 20 since the operation. For a short while I was thinking back again for another operation same eye.

15 minuter later the Dr started removing 5 micro stiches from the surface of the eye. I can assure it BBBBB hurt, then he explained he had to remove more stiches inside the eye by lazer. So more waiting this time I sat outside and got some valuable fresh air. About 30 minutes later sitting in a chair and having the lazer treatment to remove the internal stiches. The lazer beam might be small but it is still very warm/hot on the eye. After what seemed ages and more than BBBB pain he stoped. OK back into his room only to tell me the surface of the eye is too tough for the lazer. Outcome massage eye evey day and see you next week.

Now swimming put back at least one more week.
That goodness for modern medicine and having a Dr that can do the operation I had.

That sounds like it would hurt massaging an eye that stitches just came from as well as still having internal stitches. Did I say ouch ? I meant to say OUCH !!!!!!

Get well soon Keith

Told you to take care, and stop rushing off to swim, you have eye pressure problems and you cant wait to get goggles on ?

Stop it, stop it,stop it,stop it,stop it,stop it,stop it!

Silly boy! ( Smacks bum. I would slap your head , but your eye would probably pop out )

And NO bungee jumping either!

The main reason for the swimming is to help the old bones and joints from aching. When It all settles down I will be getting back to Yoga (Not standing on head stuff) Mainly relaxing yoga
