8 weeks check up after SLT

Very pleased that at the check up on Monday the pressure in my right eye was down to 18! I have an appointment later today for SLT on left eye.

The consultant said I should go back after 4 months and a final decision will be made about whether to have a trab. I really hope I don’t have to have the trab but he’s always been concerned about the initial pressure of 51 in the right eye.
