Well, I had my tube stitch removed yesterday, my eye is somewhat tender but
I know I am a quick healer!
The pressure has come down somewhat already - anyone know how long it will
take this to finally settle down?
My eye doctor says it's too soon to know what the pressure will end up at.

My stitch comes out on Thursday. I'm told that the pressure drops somewhat
at the time of removal and plummets usually the next day. Post again
tomorrow. And let us know what your doctor says at your next appointment
(which is when?). I'm very interested in knowing how you do in the near
future as I am right on your heels. Will you know? My IOP is often (but not
always) accompanied with some extreme pain, so I would know by the end of
the day (or at least have a good indication). How is it with you?
