Oops I totally forgot to report back on the optom.

Basically I was hoping for something with an easy fix like cataracts. But it turns out my high lipids are causing little nodules in my retina called drusen. Normally these are benign in isolation but I have a lot of them. In a nutshell, it's an early stage of age-related macular degeneration.

I'm advised it's possible to reverse this early stage but it will require sustained effort. I accepted a pamphlet about diet but my lipids are caused by #bipolar medication not poor diet. I will follow the advice, but I'm also newly committed to staying on the #Wegovy to get the lipids under control.
