In other news...

I recently developed a problem in my left eye. After numerous scans, it's been determined I have something called Wet Macular Degeneration. Basically, there's a hole in my retina and fluid is leaking into my eye.

The doc says at the moment, it appears to be healing on its own, which is unusual but not entirely unheard of. So, for now at least, they'll stick to observation. If, however, the condition gets worse, I could go blind in that eye, which isn't ideal. He then told me it can, however be treated, with injections.

"Oh, really", I asked, "and where would these injections be?"

"In the eye", he replied.

WHAT?! I told him they'd have to catch me and tie me down to do that, but he reassured me that with the anaesthetic, I would probably be OK, because "most people" don't feel any pain or discomfort.

Wow, that's comforting.
