I’m Having Serious Eye Problems. Just Went To The Eye Doctor!?

admin — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 16:37:36 +0000

I’m 17 years old, I just went to the eye doctor a few weeks ago, and they found minor astigmatism in my left eye, and gave me really minor prescription glasses. everything was fine after that.
two nights ago, I had a serious panic attack from stress–I was dizzy for hours and needed to be in a dark room for the rest of the night. when i woke up yesterday, everything was blurry. It even seems like the glasses make long distance vision WORSE! I have no problem reading up close, but seeing anything from about 10 feet or further is almost impossible!
I don’t understand how this could have happened overnight, and the panic attack may be completely irrelavent, but it’s all so weird. I haven’t worn the glasses since yesterday. I was hoping that when I woke up today it would be gone but it wasn’t!
I should also mention that I am diabetic, because that can affect vision over time but my blood sugars are good, and nothing like that should happen overnight like it did! help please!

I Got Serious Astigmatism After The Lasik Surgery?

I got serious astigmatism after the lasik surgery, not right after the surgery but gradually getting worse, image can be well recognized but with a cluster of gleam around, and the deepness of real image is slightly lightened, I didn’t pay attention to it first but afterwards the symptom is getting worse, I don’t know what the problem is, I do read a lot and face computer everyday, but before I got the surgery my eyes keep in the steady state since 5 years ago without getting worse, so I wanna find the reason. I wonder if it is because when I study, when I concentrate, I unconsciously strain my eyes, which strain the cornea causing the deformation of cornea (the cornea is thinner than before for it’s cut by lasik surgery) . So the cornea is becoming thinner and thinner, it’s suppose to be very dangerous if the cornea become thinner, which is what I concern about, I wish I could stop the diaster but the situation is still getting worse, can somebody help me? THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

I Have Had A Black Floater In My Right Eye For About 1 Month Now. Is It Serious?

admin — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 23:26:34 +0000

I was told that I have astigmatism about 6 months ago but don’t know if that causes floaters. The floater sometimes moves if i move my eye but not always. I have no pain or flashing lights in my eye so I had sort of ruled the possibility of a detached retina. Please help! Im getting a little worried about it because it has been going on for quite a while!!!
