..... what surprise may be in store for you when you get out of bed in the morning ...
This AM I had an appointment with the eye doctor to check on some 'floaters' I had noticed in my eye around Christmas ... At that time I had also noticed some 'light flashes' on the right side of my right eye ... Long story short, after the exam he sends me directly to a retina specialist where I ended up undergoing an 'urgent' laser procedure to repair a tear in the retina ... The specialist said it was good that we caught it early, otherwise it could have led to a detached retina and loss of sight in the eye ... Now we will have to keep monitoring both eyes on a regular basis to make certain another tear doesn't occur ...
As our buddy Gary says "Gettin' old ain't for wimps" ...
Ya just never know ...
