I was trying to think of a funny name for this post. And it’s true what I called it, I do have thicker corneas which is making the pressure reading 4 points higher than what it really is. So today they were 20 and 22-take off the 4 points, and I am in the normal range of 11-21! The cornea test is fairly new, only around for about 6 yrs. They numb your eye and the tech touches both eyes with a stylus three times.

It looked something like this.

If you blink it may scratch your cornea! She said she’s never scratched anyone’s eyes yet, so I was good. The test before that took photos of my optic nerves. I was having a little trouble getting in the right position and then I got it! It’s weird to see what it looks like in there!

Not mine!

Dr. B doesn’t have to see me again until early next year. I was one of the youngest patients today too. Here’s what he is still calling it glaucoma suspect.

We headed down the pike to a pizza place my friend recommended and we had a little trouble locating it. Bri was getting a bit of a short fuse. When we located it, here it was across the road from where my uncle was in the nursing home for several months (I never went to see him there). I will say it was a good pizza, the best I’ve had for a while!

It’s a California Ranch with grilled chicken, onions, prosciutto, tomatoes and a ranch dressing. I like different kinds of pizza and Bri is more of a red sauce and cheese guy.

I knew Bri wanted to go to the Chester County Booksellers and we did. I purchased a few magazines-they have about 40 feet of magazines, so it wasn’t easy. We stopped to get some papers at my uncle’s because my mom was there too!
