How many fingers do you see?
The simplest question an eye doctor will ask.
Not an easy question to answer when there is a monstrous clot floating around in your left eye. What I did not see was that the vision has already started to crumple on the sides. Bad news.
The doctor at the Polyclinic ordered a retinal photograph to see what is going on in there.
Flash.
He could tell me nothing, just that something is very wrong in there and I need to go to the Accident and Emergency department.
A few days back, I have researched about retinal bleeding and diabetic retinopathy. I know exactly what was going on. The bad news is, there is something that I did not notice. My peripheral vision, the sides of the vision field, was crumpled.
The clinic also took a vial of blood from me for blood tests…
Off I go, to Singapore General Hospital and got a number. After 7 hours of waiting, they finally located an eye doctor to have a look at my eye…
This path I walked is not what others should follow.
