I suppose the younger you are when things happen (like hip replacements for example), the more you may need doing further down the line.Dchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02490191919855219024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339317216265636215.post-59169241086409291482012-01-03T17:09:23.754+00:002012-01-03T17:09:23.754+00:00Good news indeed, you must be so relieved.

It settled down in time, though she does still get floaters. I had them too , but they were due to cataracts. My first developed so fast I was blind in that eye within months. Within 6 weeks of that being found, I had one in my other eye. That one developed much more slowly and took 2 years to need surgery.I was 43 when the first was operated on, and it has started to fail so I will need holes lasering in it at some point. I was warned that would be the case because of my relatively young age for surgery.Scarlethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01729719876504930455noreply@blogger.com
