No, I'm not referring to that damned subject called covid-19, but to another virus, which has finally been definitively identified, but let's proceed step by step ...
Some of you will have recognized this owl (?!?!), It is a free image that I took a few days ago from Pixabay, accompanying my post on the problem that has been haunting my eyes for 3 months now, today I had a paid visit, from a very good specialist, both, me and my partner ...
The music was distinctly different, there is nothing to be done, it's sad what I'm about to tell you, but I think anyone can confirm the following statements ...
When it happens to paid healthcare, often and willingly, we have the knife, symbolically, on the side of the handle, in the sense that in the previous visit we entered one at a time, me and my partner, while today, apart from the preliminary visit done with the ophthalmologist's assistant, when he arrived we went in together, it made no sense to do otherwise, because at the end of the carousel we both had the same disease, but let's get to the real facts ...
Conjunctivitis, a cursed viral conjunctivitis, which has left its traces on the cornea of my left eye and on the cornea of my partner's right eye, the dots are clearly visible and clear on the cornea, but they will disappear, as long as I follow a cure, based on a low dose cortisone eye drops ...
Detailed explanations, accurate answers to our questions, first-rate assistance, I knew we would have this treatment, unfortunately the two visits cost 304 euros (4 euros are the stamps on the invoice), and the eye drops cost 16 euros, approximately one will be needed a month for each, with a duration of treatment roughly set between 4 and 6 months, but it could be even more, progress needs to be checked, but, as far as I'm concerned, no glasses from far and near , and no type of laser surgery, everything will disappear, you just need patience and perseverance, but I repeat, the impression that this doctor left us was clearly superior to the one that visited us on December 1st ...
You may be wondering why we didn't go to this ophthalmologist right away, instead of being examined by any ophthalmologist through the Ausl ...
Simple, for a couple of reasons, the first due to the fact that we did not think that conjunctivitis could produce discomfort of this size, and secondly I did not have a great desire to spend these 300 euros (I am not convinced that we will stop at the 1st visit ...), but you know, who spends better, or more spends, in the end spends less, the accuracy of the diagnosis and the demonstrated competence are well worth the money spent, even if on a very deficit budget like ours they will weigh and how , unfortunately there is little to do, you can't mess around with your eyes ...
