unfortunately it wasn't a bikini type of weekend thanks, silly me, finally I'm catching up now with Kat & Michelle's news- Im sorry you are having issues again I KNOW how painful it is..I hope you get better quick. Thank you both for the well-wishes I'm already better...  when on Sunday I became light sensitive, it had me worried that the pain that I'd been feeling in my eye during the week might be iritis. So I didn't want to wait until Monday and get an appointment, seemed too risky considering what happened the first time. So we decided to call the same retina specialist who had given me the injection, dialed through to the emergency care, and luckily got him as he was returning from his vacation. He remembered me from before, even though it had been in 2003, and agreed to meet us at his office at 9PM. He saw my very red eye, examined it with the slit-scan, and pronounced it as iritis, gave me the pred-forte drops, and so we caught it early on this time!

Dow,
Do you ALWAYS wear sunglasses outside? Im wondering if it is AS or the Iritis that can come with it but for years I have been light sensitive but more so thru the iritis, like I can NOT go outside without sunglasses...even when cloudy.
Sorry if Im not making sense..on alot of pain drugs..lol

Friends,
I just saw on a back page some where that sun-=glasses like sun-block have thier problems; by allowing us to get too much exposure. EWven though we can see easier, some of these glasses let in the bad rays.
Sun block lets us stay out longer, but some damage is as bad as ever??
just thinking...

Lon,
I read the same thing, thanks for posting this I think alot of times we get into a false sense of thinking these things will keep us safe...WE are our biggest advocates!
Hugs,
Lisa
