Hi Barney,

I have another appointment next week where some serious decisions are going
to be made.

In my case I only have my left eye with site. The right eye basically goes
along for the daily free ride adding nothing to the situation. If I lose the
left eye?  I'M BLIND! 
So I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

cheers,
ted

Dear Dr. Ted,

Thank you for your kind words. I am concerned about your rising eye
pressure. Have they tried laser surgery?
