Well I hadn't been to a eye in 4 years and broke down today and went because of this menopause crazy scary stuff, anyways I didn't like the report I got first he said I had some eye disease caused by getting chicken poop in your eye through dust or whatever he called it some big name can't remember now due to over load of anxiety , the only time I was around chickens was when I was in foster care and had to gather and clean poop off the eggs, then he said I had scar tissues around or in the Renita of the eye or somewhere back there, then he said I had allergy eyes and that he would like my glaucoma readings to been closer together one was 17 and the other was 21 THEN he said I had pink pigmentation some kind of pigmentation ask if I was a blonde when I was younger let me tell you my anxiety hit the roof, I looked up pigmentation and seen what all it said including causes glaucoma and I just closed browser quickly :-( If anyone on this list prays will you please pray for my eyes? My new glasses prescription won't come in for 10 days. So he found 4 things with my eyes , I have to come back in a few days or a couple of weeks for eye dilation trying to calm down going to take shower in hopes it will help calm me now another 4 things to worry about. :-( If anyone can relate to any of this please share.
I cannot relate in sense where the eye doctor basically told me that my eyes are healthy…just migraines and eyeglasses. But, I can relate to being scared about my vision. It seems that everyday my vision is different and it causes me a great deal of anxiety. So, I just want you to know that you are not alone and that I can sympathize with your worry.
Crosado, i’m very sorry you had a stressful I appointment. Do you mind if I ask how old you are, only asking because my friend had cataracts done when she was 58. I think it’s very common unfortunately. I would like to say also I’m sorry you were in the foster care system. I worked as a case assistant in the foster care system for two years and I know it’s terribly terribly difficult. My heart goes out to you. how old were you when you were taking care of the chicken coop? I remember as a child in through the year is always hearing that chicken feces and I think Bird Feeding sees can cause diseases but I never knew what diseases? I guess we know now
I was blind as a child I’ve been blind all my life actually. But I don’t think I will be googly about anytime soon… LOL. There’s an excellent supplement out there for a vision, google supplements for vision and then I would go on Amazon to check the reviews. also I know looting is good for the eyes but I would definitely look into a supplement for the eyes. do you wear sunglasses, if you don’t I would start wearing them all the time outside. I know my eyesight is drastically changed and I’m only 53 and I am post menopausal two years now I know my eyesight is drastically changed and I’m only 53 and I am post menopausal two years now. try to do some deep breathing …go out and walk barefoot in the grass … it really does help. I bet if we all went to the eye doctor at this stage of the game, we would be surprised at the report, try to remember you’re not alone;)
Staci, Mine is as well, varies every day, interesting to know how hormones affect the eyes.
