A WOMAN from Bradford has undergone a potentially sight-saving procedure after an opticians appointment helped identify signs of a tumour. Tracey Forrest, 43, went to her opticians in Girlington after she experienced a loss of vision and chronic headaches. This appointment identified abnormalities following an eye examination and referred Tracey to eye specialists at Bradford Royal Infirmary (BRI). She underwent a series of tests at the hospital, which confirmed she had a meningioma. A meningioma is a tumour that has grown from the tissues that line the brain, called meninges. The vast majority of meningiomas are entirely benign (WHO grade I) and usually grow as a lump compressing the adjacent brain.
