Hi all, Thanks for your replies. I am happy to report that I will be able to have my 2nd Lucentis injection on time after all.

Whilst there was never any chance of my choosing holidays over my eye health, the point I was trying to get at I suppose is the major disruption to plans for the sake of a 'few days'. After reading some posts I appreciate that urgency of treatment must be paramount. However in my case my eye has not not got worse since end of last Nov. In fact has improved slightly in as much as I no longer have central dark patch! My hospital's regimen for time between injections 28 - 35 days. This together with an extra Saturday clinic has resolved my dilemma. Thanks again for your advice, I'm off now for my 1st injection at 2:10 today.
