Hi Everyone!
Well, this just sucks! I'm having symptoms of retina detachment in my left eye. I saw the ophthalmologist today in Eugene. She, reported that my retina is not detached but that the vitreous gel that is behind the lens of the eye and infront the retina is shrinking. It is a sticky substance and as it shrinks, (due to old age) it pulls on the retina. She says there is nothing to do but wait. I see her again in a month. However, if symptoms change for the worse I am to call her immediately, even if it is on the weekend.

...I had a detached retina year ago, they fixed it.
ReplyDeleteConsider it done Nicole, all vibes and good wishes for a good outcome.
ReplyDeleteI would have thought they could start laser work to fix things already sending prayers. My son had a retinal tear that we found when he was 13 years old and the eye surgeon sealed it with laser surgery.
ReplyDeleteI had a vitreous leak about 6 years ago. It terrified me, but it did not seem to damage anything. I have been ok even with it and it did not require any intervention. it did not worsen my vision either. Believe it or not, my eye doctor suggested that I drink much more water because she felt dehydration affects the eyes.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes, good vibes, healing energy, all for you and your eye, Nicole! May all turn out well for you!
