I have a huge irrational fear of the glaucoma pressure test with that puff of air. Yikes! My brain w... on’t let me do it. I don’t like things getting close to my eyes. The staff at Grabill Eye Center are patient with me and offer another machine that — while still getting close to my eye — still gets the doctor the info they need about my eye. The staff are so patient and understanding with me about my fear and I really appreciate that.
