Went for my eye test this morning, the assistant did the puff test and visual field.
I was shaking the whole way through and at the end I asked how it was she said she had to repeat pressure test and not to worry as it sometimes happens.
I said I didn't think I did the visual field test well and she said "you didn't do too bad".
So then she tells me the optometrist hasn't turned up today and can I rebook!!!!!!
By this point I'm a nervous wreck and said to her can you tell me the results of the tests I've done she said the puff test was a bit higher in my right eye. I said I didn't want to rebook as I was so anxious I needed to get a test done today and she said I totally understand as you are so anxious I think you are just going to work yourself up if you don't.
I said was everything ok and she said "please don't worry".
So I walked out and have now booked at eye test with boots but couldn't get in til 5.10pm.
My husband is sick of me I'm crying, shaking can't eat anything, my head is pounding and my face is flushed.
I keep thinking I've failed the visual field test and my pressure in my right eye is high, my husband said she wouldn't have let you walk out if it was bad she would have said it was imperative to go back and see the optician, but I don't think she would she was only an asssitant.
So now I've got to wait til 5.10pm!
I just can't calm down, I took my mum with me and she said I need to calm down as that probably isn't helping the tests.
Sorry for the rant I'm just so low don't know what to do :weep:
