Anglia Ruskin university are running an online survey about whether the pandemic has had an impact on the management of eye disorders for patients, and whether it has caused undue stress and anxiety.
Yes, I am massively stressed by not being able to keep a check on my IOP. This is always the case, but made much worse by my 5-month waiting time for a routine glaucoma check-up being extended to nearly 9 months.
Just hoping that that forthcoming date doesn’t get cancelled yet again.
I had to arrange an eyesight test with an optician just to get my IOP checked as part of the test.
I strongly recommend opticians offering this test, it’s perfectly quick and easy using the ‘puff’ method.
