Didn't start off good at all. I could barely read the first line of the eye-chart, so I asked him to close the door as the light coming in was very bright. Didn't help. I couldn't even read the first line, with either eye :(
He then did his stuff: freezing, pressure, dialation, and finally the exam. My confidence level was pretty low and sinking.
He looked in the right with his little light. He gave it a long hard look. No signs of any bleeding in the right eye." Yea!
He then went to my bad left eye. looked in, and immediately set the light on his table. "Lay back!" I started feeling pretty anxious as he lowered the back for a closer look with the strong lens.
He did my right eye first. "Look right. Look up. Look left. Look down. Look straight." That last one hurt like ****. :( Then he did my left eye. Same routine. "Look right. Look up. Look left. Look down. Look straight." Again he didn't spend nearly as long on my left as my right. Usually he spends much more time on it. I can feel my heart throbbing!
"Looks like you'll never bleed again." he says. "I'll see you in four months."
Gawd I hate doctors!
