Had my eye screening test today think all went well but need to wait for the results to come in the post the bloke said there looks like there's something in my left eye then he said on the other photograph of my left eye it looks okay and he said it's probs a reflection that's got me slightly worried now last time they told me when I was there my eyes are fine no damage and eyes were healthy
 
Waiting for results is horrible, I remember feeling anxious after my first retinopathy. Hopefully the man is correct in thinking it was just a reflection, keeping fingers crossed for you.
 
Try not to worry Sunny, better to wait and see what the proper examination of the photos shows. Even if there is a small problem it may be temporary and resolve itself before your next scan 🙂

Yes it's not nice I asked if there was any problems he said he thinks everything is fine I had a feeling he's just a student maybe that's why he's slightly unsure he said the other photograph of my left eye looks okay so it's probs a reflection

I would be surprised if there is a problem as I tight control my levels and rarely get high levels I think the guy doing mine is Probs one of them people who thinks let me wait and suffer I knew that when I first saw him today
