It should be gone in a month, so 47 days left

My right eye has a cataract.
I have surgery scheduled for February, so I was told to come in for a checkup once a month.
Based on the nuance of what was said at the time, I decided that it would probably be fine to come in after a month and a little bit.
That was a lazy judgment.

When I went for my next checkup after a month and 17 days, I got scolded.
The last time was August, right? Today is October 15th.
Exactly! We need to collect various data before the surgery, so we'll run out of days! You need to come in properly, they said.

So I decided to go exactly on time and went today.
There's a bit of childishness in being stubborn enough to go exactly on the 15th.
Of course, I also told them that Graves' disease had been discovered.

And when it comes to monthly checkups, the eye drops prescribed last time start to pile up.
"I still have eye drops left."
"The cataract ones are fine, I suppose."
"The retinal detachment ones are also still fine."
"You know, this is actually an amount that shouldn't even last a month."
"...I've been putting them in three times a day, though..."
When I pouted a little and muttered a rebuttal,
"Well, none for this time then."
They conceded.

It's been about 7 years since my retinal detachment, and I've been using eye drops, perhaps for disinfection, but it had become at most once a day.
However, my other eye developed a cataract, and I've been diligently putting them in so it doesn't get worse, so I thought I was being serious about it.

Four times a day is difficult.
Especially on days off, I tend to forget.
