    The doctor was ok. He was with some students. Perhaps that is why I did not receive post op instructions. At my 2 wk check up he asked if I was wearing my eye shield? I was never given a shield, I was never told about a shield. So I had to go back in and pick it up from the front desk. I live in Lehi, the office was at the hospital in Salt Lake. I also have a scar but he says it should subside. The shield was intended to be used in the first couple weeks. When I informed him I had no idea about a shield. I asked if it mattered since it already had been 2 weeks. He stumbled a little bit, I am assuming because he realized I was given NO instruction. He said sure it wouldn't hurt and then after I asked he explained what the shield did. Luckily I sleep with a silk eye mask, that protected my eye.
