These are my HRT results from today, 19-January-2007. This test was performed with an HRT-II, which is the same model used for my HRT test in 2006. However, today's tests were done by a different doctor (and different HRT operator) -- in fact, they were done in a different country.
Upon a quick examination, the doctor didn't seem to think there was much progression over the last year. However, I expect further input in the coming weeks.
Hi Folks,
I am still mulling over the information you posted previously on vitamin C, Dave. [EDIT: see comment below for a recap.]
Here are my GDx-VCC test results:

I was told, "Nice photos. I would like to use them in a lecture. Your left disc has some thinning of the rim superiorly. You could get a GDx-VCC and see what it shows."
I did get the GDx-VCC and I posted the GDx-VCC test results here. I also have Heidelberg Retina Tomograph test results posted and you can find them by using the HRT tag.
A friend referred me to a new ophthalmologist who lives in another city. I corresponded with this new ophthalmologist via email. I am not replacing my current ophthalmologists, merely seeking additional input on specific issues where experts are few and far between.
However, I guess many facts did not get communicated clearly in my various emails to the doctor. The doctor sent me this email reply today (and I edited what is posted here):
Our discussions and planning for a new business venture have been getting progressively more intense during the last week. Today represents a peak in that "stress".

Abstract
These are my HRT results from 2-January-2006. Look for my next HRT results around the end of January 2007.
This test was performed with an HRT-II. The HRT is a Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (also called scanning laser tomograph). It is made by Heidelberg Engineering, a German company.
