Sorry I couldn’t answer my notifications today, maybe not for a few day. Hope you can read this. I’m not seeing very well. I saw an eye/specialist today’s for a hemmorage in my eye. He gave me an injection in my eye.He said it would be painful and poor sight for a few days. I hope it’s better tomorrow. Hope you guys are doing well.

I will surely miss your comments but you rest and get that eye better. When I was going through my cataract surgery I really realized how much I depend on my sight. Are you taking any supplements for eye health? I take Lutein. Take care.

We certainly do depend on our eyes, and yes I take my eye vitamins. I won’t be here long today but more after the next few days to catch up on my notifications.

@changjiangzhibin89 I’m not sure but that’s likely what I’m getting. Was your mother able to stop getting the injections after awhile?

The injection was to preserve my sight so I’m thankful for it. I’ll have to have an injection each month. I thank all of you for your concern.

@RubyHawk Monthly injections are annoying. I'm sorry you're going through that and hope you won't have to do that for long.

I know you do, as much trouble as you have with your eyes. Wish you could get a break. Mine will be okay but I will have to get an injection every month.

Hope that injection does the trick. I have some idea of the problem as my left eye is clouding because of an old sport injury, way back in 1974. I can still remember it!

That’s too bad that you had an eye injury. Hope it’s not a big problem. Of course anything that effects your eyes is a problem.
