So I just spent the past 2 days driving Miss Daisy (My mom) to appointments
I think we have finally found someone that can help her.
It took 4 1/2 hours for test, they put dye in her arm and took pictures and then did a sonogram of the eye.
She will not ever get the center vision back but he thinks he can get her peripheral vision back in her right eye.
I'm feeling good about it and she is too.(That's most important)
She was so afraid to get another shot after her last experience but this Dr. is really good. She hugged his neck afterwards.
There is leakage in the left eye (her good eye) He thinks he can control it with the shots.
All this after the last Dr said he couldn't do anything else for her.
This Dr said once he gets the bleeding under control he can do a surgery similar to cataract surgery to take out the blood.
I just pray that this is all true and not just another Dr. trying to get what he can from her insurance....
Anyway... I know this may not make much sense, but I'm just grateful right now.
