A trabulectomy is a surgical operation on the eye to treat glaucoma, particularly when medication (eye drops) has been already tried and not been successful. My op was there and a half weeks ago. Hopefully my surgeon will let me do normal things again when I return for another check-up on Tuesday. It means I have missed several workshops that I had wanted to go to, because of the surgery. Thankfully I was able to go on a storytelling gig a few days ago, thank goodness. I told some stories at a local WI.
