Got My Eyes Checked Today
After my 2 months of radiation for the cancer surgery that was on the right side of my face (2018), I found my vision had been affected and I had trouble focusing or target shooting so I looked at my glasses and they were OLD! So, I looked at various eyeglass places and Stanton Optical had the same day, free eye exam, $99 per pair of glasses, ETC, ETC.
Well the beautiful young lady saw my cataracts and referred me to an eye surgeon and he saw them too and feels they are from either "old age" or the radiation I got in the US Navy. Fortunately, if you are "referred" to the eye specialist Medicare will pay for the visit and any needed surgery! So far those little buggers haven't gotten bigger or worse and the docs think the cancer infusion meds may have an effect on my eyes as it is effecting other things.
After the radiation.......my beard and hair was all white, okay with me as I am getting old.....but in the last year or so all has turned RED again and no one can figure why?
