EYE DEPARTMENT (ophthalmologist) My mum has lost half her sight due to a stroke and suffers with wet macular degeneration which can make you blind if you do not get the injections in your eye ball. We went to the hospital on a Saturday because my mums sight was going and they told us to come back on Thursday, we come back on a Thursday but the nurses where unable to find a vein in my mums arm to inject the dye in my mums arm and told us to come back in 12 days. We come back today and Nurse injected a dye and found a leakage in both eyes and told us to come back in 16 days when she can have an injection in one of her eyes and a week after that in the other eye. By that time my mum will be almost totally blind, she needs treatment now. How many other people are going blind because they are not acting quickly enough ? Its like we are a third world country.
