Eyes

This morning didn't go to work.

Had to bring my mother to see doctor at Raffles Hospital.
She had been complaining about her eyes/nose/tongue problem for a few years, seen many many doctors, but somehow never been able to 'cure' her.

Besides these, she has some other problems as well ... ...

Anyway, brought her to Raffles Hospital, reached there around 11am. Apparently, her friend recommended her to go there. Expensive place eh? :P

Checked her eyes, doctor said her eyes were very dry. Typical index figure for normal person is about 20, my mother's index is only 4! Gosh!
So the doctor suggested putting a kind of plug in one of the 'glands' (not sure if this is the correct medical term for it), to stop the flow of our usual eye moistures (basically tears lah ...) down through the nose and into the mouth area ...

Too chim already eh? Basically, that's the mechanism of fluidity movement in our eyes, and down to our throat area.

So putting the plug there can help to retain these fluid in the eye area, as such, the eyes can be a little less dry.

So knowledgeable huh?!?!?! :)

So now have to observe to see how the progress goes. If need be, there's another 'gland' in the eye (each eye has 2 outlets) that can be plugged. Have to monitor the dryness.

After that, drove mom back home, and then decided too late to go office, so went back home to work from home.
I have a proposal to send today. hehehe

It's CNY eve, not sure yet if we would be heading down to Chinatown tonight.
Hmmmmmmmm ....................
