We definitely had lots to talk about with all of them.

I have know idea how I received my tear, in fact I didn't know I even had one until last year when the doctor did the tests on our eyes to see if we even qualified for this lens replacement surgery. He certainly doesn't seem to worried about it but wants to keep he eye on it. I have not noticed any small flashing lights in my eyes but I will certainly keep that in mind should that start to happen, thanks.<br /><br />We are so glad that you are still following along on our travels and that you find our posts interesting and entertaining. :-)Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-22936565466200882372022-02-21T00:53:30.958-05:002022-02-21T00:53:30.958-05:00We are so happy with the results of our eye surger...We are so happy with the results of our eye surgeries last winter and having the doctor do a thorough checkup on them makes us even happier.<br /><br />The Senior Nomads group, is a good group on Facebook and we were really happy to meet up with fellow travelers.

A different ophthalmologist did laser surgery to repair them, an outpatient visit that only took minutes to complete and is relatively painless. The laser reinforces the tissue around the tear. Since the surgery I've had no further problems but had check ups every six months for two years after. <br /><br />The most notable thing was small flashing lights as my eye moved around, I only noticed it at night. Remember if you see a flashing light at say 12:00, the tear is really at 6:00, you see upside down and the brain changes things to right side up.<br /><br />PS: You blog is a daily must read for me, thanks for all the work you do to post the most interesting travels. :cDPaul and Marti Dahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17332654035718777839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-2311720580218345902022-02-20T06:03:45.757-05:002022-02-20T06:03:45.757-05:00Great to hear you passed your eye tests and at a v...Great to hear you passed your eye tests and at a very good price too!
