I Have Been To The Eye Doctor Again
[ Friday December 22nd 2023 at 3:15 pm ]
I just finished at the eye doctor. There was some bacteria on the swab from the hospital a week ago. But it wasn't demonstrative. Nothing grew when cultured. A person can have a bit of bacteria on their face. If bacteria was the problem it would have been an overwhelming result. This also eliminates a yeast infection. I personally believe in the process of deduction. I felt this was actually helpful.
Sometimes knowing what isn't wrong is just as helpful as knowing what is wrong. This leads to what is left: my tear duct is likely the culprit. I am going to see an eye lid specialist ( which encompasses the tear duct ).
The eye doctor used a probe to stretch open the tear duct and then flushed it. The left side made out much better than the right side. The right side isn't blocked. There is merit in continuing to use the artificial tears and the warm wash clothes to try and help the tear duct be whole again.
The eye doctor screened me for all the chronic eye illnesses and checked my vision. There is no real concern about my eyes themselves.
