Long story short; a mole was found in my eye about 3yrs ago. I had 6monthly checks and all apparently been ok. However, last September they thought the mole had changed and potentially become cancerous!
I had further tests and was told all was ok with it.
I still wanted further reassurance so seemed the opinion of the ocular oncologist....
Lots if tests carried out. They said it was just a mole, around 5.38mm and I'd get reviewed a couple more times before needing 2 yearly checks!
Today I went to opticians. They took another photo and said it was around 6
7mm. It said he didn't think it had changes from last years photo ( around October 2012.)
I got home and worried that its got bigger since the oncologist in December. This is therefore freaked me out!
My eye cancer fears are creeping back!!!
I do think that maybe the optician isn't accurate in his measurement as the oncologist had loads of special equipment !?!
This is why my HA started, back in September 2012.
