Another Quick Update

Fintan has been back to the Royal London for a couple of visits since the last update.

After the appointment 4 weeks ago he had been complaining of pain in his right eye so after speaking with the hospital they thought it was best for the doctor to take a look. So 2 weeks ago he was seen awake (no smelly sleep needed on this occasion) and Mr Reddy decided that there was nothing obviously wrong and suggested it was the inflammation and bleeding from the treatment that was causing the pain. He asked us to continue with Fintan's eye cream for a few more days.

Last Wednesday (8th) Fintan was back again, this time for a Smelly Sleep (EUA) and despite everyone being very tired (of which we understand there is photographic evidence, thanks Tara!) Fintan was really good and had no treatment on this occasion. Mr Sagoo said that the left eye seems stable and in fact the vision had actually improved in this eye, and that he chose not to treat the right eye as there was substantial bleeding from the previous treatment.

As I'm sure you have guessed, he'll be back at the Royal London in 4 weeks for more of the same!
