Entry 21 : Right eye op











 I had my right-side eye op two years ago, 21 Dec 2020 to be exact, for epiretinal membrane. This membrane needed to be taken out as it progressively would cover up the retinal. I had a cataract simultaneously, so it's like a two-in-one op. I had to be warded for 5 days and the op time lasted 1.20 mins. I was given anaesthetic by intravenous drips, so there's no pain during the op. With the new internal lens, I can see within 1m. 

Since this occasion was the first time I was warded so far living in Japan for 26 years, I find the food they served is totally healthy and sufficient for my daily food intake. I was warded in Ryukyu Univ. Hosp which is about 4 km away from my house.
