On the gripping eyeball

[perlmonger]

Third visit to the Eye Hospital this afternoon, and the first actual scheduled appointment. Nothing new, really: they did a field test, the results of which showed that my right eyesight is still as bad as I feared, not as recovered as I’d hoped. I guess I’m doing a lot of extra post-processing ATM, which would explain the low framerate and interspersed random photoshop filter effects that I’m seeing.

The antipodean chap I saw after the tests didn’t really say anything new; not a lot they can say or do until after the MRI scan on Friday week provides some sort of data. He seems to be a β-interferon fan for early-stage MS, if that’s what I actually have, but beyond saying that it’s an expensive drug (no sher!), he didn’t offer any odds on actually getting it on the NHS, even should I have the disease and then choose to pursue that option. All a bit premature, really.

So. Another positive experience overall (in on time, out early, no crap from or with anyone I dealt with); I emerged with another appointment being processed for three weeks hence. We’ll see how the radiology dept. at BRI proper compares next week.

All this waiting around must be maddening.
Let's hope the MRI at least gives you something more definite one way or another.
