Had my first retinal exam this morning. Particularly critical for me as my granddad lost his sight completely and my uncle has also suffered major retinopathy.

And the news is... great. All clear (for now)! :D
 
Great news Gary

I have mine on 3 January. Last year no problems so fingers crossed for this 1 to.

I have mine in a local Opticians; but carried out by an eye surgeon who generally confirms if all Ok before you leave; but officially I have to wait for the local eye hospital to confirm normally a couple of weeks later.
