Hi Lisa, Thanks for moving my post where it is more appropriate. That is my problem. My eye Dr. is so busy that he is pushing patients off on the already over crowded O.D. and I am NOT getting questions answered in a suitable manor lately. Soon this town will be over run with Snow Birds and NO answers will be forth coming as the patient load increases tremendously for 6 months. My SLT was done only 10 months ago and, in my humble & layman opinion, that the suggestion to do a "yearly SLY Maintenance" procedure is just placing me & others on the Vicious Medicare tread mill and only because of how often Medicare will pay and not really medically needed. Also still taking 3 drops a day which I was told the SLT would eliminate ? Not sure what high IOP is considered but 13-15 range surely cannot be considered terrible for a Diabetic with open angle Glaucoma. At this point I am feeling rather "used" and frustrated. Thanks for your oversight, compassion and help.
I believe I will be canceling the SLT procedure scheduled for December. Just does not feel right and I have to be 100% on board. Thanks again.
