“stick a needle in my eye”

I get an intra-ocular injection about every 3 months for a branch retinal vein occlusion(RVO). Its not a horrible process to be stuck, thanks to numbing eyedrops, but expensive (1/2 cc of the magic drug retails over $3000).

Doc is cranking out at least a half dozen injections per hour every hour he is in the office. I almost always sit in line for this pleasure.

Every now and then the injection catches a capillary on the way in, and the result looks like that Joe eye. That happened to me once.

However, if that bleed developed spontaneously while he was on stage, that’s an old horse of a different color.
