Sorry to here that.

Hope you did not come out in sympathy with Annes poke in the eye.

Sure being kept in is purely a precautionary measure to ensure the leak is stopped properly.

All the best.

Sarah

A night in hospital may not be too much of a price to pay for a good outcome!

All the best. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Yours aye

Hi Sarah,

All the best to you. You shouldn't be overly worried, you are in the best place.

But when you come home I'd advise being especially careful for a couple of weeks - perhaps even wearing the eye shield 24 hours a day.

I'm sure that the leak will be healed really quickly though. :D
