ah me, six hour wait to get some eye drops, that's twice as long as the operation took, but at least a junior doctor, a senior doctor, two students and the cleaning lady have all had a look at my eyes and said they're fine, except for something they described as "hundreds and thousands" in the eye that isn't itching. They think it might be a leftover from shingles I had yonks ago.
The junior doctor went over with the students all the awful things that could go wrong with cataract ops, but kindly broke off every couple of minutes to tell me "I don't mean you of course, you're fine." So I suppose I must be.
