My father was diagnosed with eye lymphoma. He has had radiotherapy but only managed 22 of the 25 sessions. He is very emotional. His sight has got worse. It's been 6 weeks since he stopped treatment. Is this normal ?
I'm sorry that your father has been having problems since his radiotherapy, it isn't unusual for there to be symptoms and side affects 6 weeks after treatment.
I've added here a link from our website about radiotherapy side affects where the eye has been treated.
Maybe contact your dads hospital team or specialist nurse (CNS) and let them know how he is doing, or if he has a follow up appointment soon then do mention your concerns.
Take care, and if you want to talk anything through further then you may find it helpful to chat with one of the nurses on our helpline. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040, 9am till 5pm, Mon to Fri.
