nervous over eye check

[c=004A59][i]nervous about health appointment

i have an up coming appointment to have my eyes screened because i manage type 2 diabetes, and my eyes are checked at intervals, i haven't had my eyes checked for about over a year because i was unable to travel to the last venue because i have mental health problems as well and cannot travel far because i get anxious and paranoid.

so as this appointment is approaching, my thoughts are racing with 'what ifs' what if they find something wrong with my eyes?

earlier this year was at the optician to have my eyes checked and they told my eyes was okay.....but this next appointment is a more in depth scan.

what can i do?[/i][/c]

So my right eye right now is better than my left eye. But with those eye tests I was getting they told me my right eye will do the same, with the fluid leak behind the retina, it has happened a little but I can still see normal out of the right eye.

When I was initially diagnosed the doctor said it's stress related, nothing to do with looking at a monitor. It was an AOC monitor. I stay away from those now. I still feel like it was that specific monitor that caused it.

I haven't really cut down on my computer time. I can spend a whole day on it to be honest.

I think the only way my left eye might get better is to have a cold laser therapy but my body was freaking out over having a needle just stuck in my arm and when I went to lean forward on my chair to readjust, the doctor thought I was passing out and lifted me up out of the chair, so I never went back.
