Meningiomas are tumour s wit h good prognosis most of the time.it would be better if you had mentioned the histopathology of the tumour n the site. U were put on the mesh after the tumour excision which indicates that the tumour would have involved the surrounding bone .u need not worry for this until it is grade3 tumour when you require radio therapy. Pls gey mri n mrv as per doctors advice. This is to know for any tumour recurrence. If u have increased difficulty von seeing the objects iy is better u take an urgent cat scan brain to check for any residual or recurring tumour. If u t comfortable with the work u can attend to it as usual n no need to abstain from work.
