Background Retinopathy Bingo!

I have lost count of the various locations I have to go to for my Eye Screening over the last couple of decades.

My next test isn't due till next year, but it's a 30 mile round trip to the nearest large town. Luckily hubby can drive me. Very sunny last year but it was July.

Mine used to be at the local GP surgery which is only 5 minutes walk from home so the worst thing I had to deal with (with sunglasses) was my South facing white front door.
Now it is 30 minutes walk away in an uninviting health centre where you don't register your arrival. You just hope the scanner guy will notice you are waiting. The walk home is a little disconcerting but the other option is to do some shopping in the supermarket next door which could be a little hit and miss at what I pick up.

All went very smoothly, Now just a week or two’s wait for the results 🙂

This year for the first time ever they gave me a choice of where to go so I rang and said which place has the earliest slot and it was a random surgery somewhere in Coventry so I went there. I wouldn't choose there again though cos there was hardly any parking for patients, the bulk of it was firmly for Staff Only. (Er, hang on ....)

Last time mine was at ASDA in Coventry so plenty of parking, very efficient and quick.
