     Well, I got good news and bad news today.   
      
     I don't have glaucoma...the eye pressures were between 11 and 15, which   
   is normal, and the visual acuity was 20/15, which is excellent.   
      
     But, I need to have the right eye now done with Yag Laser Surgery. That   
   is normally done after cataract surgery...the left eye was done shortly   
   after the cataract surgery.   
      
     It's impossible to drive at night, and I'm getting fog with the   
   bright lights (headlights or brake lights), at night, and during   
   the day. So, with the $300 co-pay required for it, as well as for   
   the EGD and colonoscopy (which I'm overdue for), I've resolved that   
   it's medically necessary for me to sell my car next week.   
      
     I can get groceries and medications delivered...and I'll use Uber   
   only once every 2 weeks to go to the Post Office Box...and to what   
   few doctors appointments I have. For procedures where I have to be   
   sedated, that's harder...as they won't let you use any form of   
   public transportation...and all of my friends work during the day.   
      
     But, it will suck being home except for 2 days a month, and then,   
   only going to the Post Office Box to get mail.
