<DIV><SPAN class=265501403-07062007><FONT face=Arial size=2>My EMT training
has certainly paid off for me personally. I always thought it was well worth
the cost and time, but never expected it to help me
personally.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=265501403-07062007><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am in Phoenix
taking a class (my wife and I just bought a juice bar franchise and we are
in training). This morning I noticed some flashes of light in the corner of
my right eye when I was looking to the left. They went away, but I had a
"floater" that I had not seen before. I went through the checklist from my
EMT training and at the top of the worst case was a retinal tear leading to
a retinal detachment. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=265501403-07062007><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=265501403-07062007><FONT face=Arial size=2>I finished class
and went to the Sam's club down the street to see an eye doc, but he was
out. I went to an urgent care place in the same mall and the doc said it
looked just fine to him, but he did not have all the equipment to do a
really good job. So I asked for and got a recommendation to an
ophthalmologist who had about 30 minutes till closing and was about 3 miles
away. I called and went to see him. He did a normal check and said it was
all good, but he wanted to do a full check. He said the odds were about 0.2%
that I was right, but he wanted to be sure. I said do it. He found a small
retinal tear in the lower outside area of my right eye (the left was in very
good shape). He said the tears are normally in the upper part of the retina
and gravity then makes them progress faster to a detachment.

<DIV><SPAN class=265501403-07062007><FONT face=Arial size=2>The good news is
they can "weld" the retina back with a laser in an office procedure and they
say it will be as good as new. I'm go to class in the morning then seeing
the surgeon at 11AM and will be back in class by 2PM! Modern technology is
wonderful. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
