Thanks guys. I got a call back from the original specialist and they said the only other option is removing the eye. I am ok with doing that, but something about the way it was phrased didn't sit well with me. I'm not sure how to explain it. I expected more like "we can fit you in for a quick recheck on X day and discuss the plan from there" but it was basically... call your vet and schedule it. Also wouldn't the specialist do the removal?
I made him an appointment with a different eye specialist on the 18th. If that specialist says the same thing, then I will schedule eye removal. Until then I will continue to treat with the steroid drops. |
