Tower Bridge

Post by frankattleborough »

Now that I am home I can post what I have done so far. It is still a bit of a problem as the optician told me yesterday that they won't do my cataracts yet! They have moved the goalposts from 5 years ago so they have to get much worse now. All they will do is change one of the lenses in my specs so that I can see better. Maybe next year they will do the op!

Beautiful work. :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: Sorry to hear that the op is not going to happen. It must be so frustrating. Good luck with the eyes.

How frustrating for you Frank. I have heard some people here say that their ophthalmic surgeons will do the cataract surgery at any stage and not wait until a certain percentage of cloudiness is there. If you have not seen an ophthalmologist yet it might be worth checking out.

Love the progress on your WIP, looking good.
