Vision Problems
Author: The Presson's // Category:
Yesterday was very scary. I have been having vision problems in my right eye for about 3 weeks now (right after my annual exam) so I went in to have it checked out. They diagnosed me with some long name ending in "retinitis" and said I needed to see a retinal specialist ASAP. Turns out I have had scar tissue on both retinas my whole life. Because of this scar tissue my eye developed extra blood vessels which have inflammed my optic nerve - causing vision loss in that eye.
They had to inject an anti-cancerous drug into my eyeball (fun stuff) and hopefully that will shrink the blood vessels and heal the optic nerve. I "might" get my lost vision back but he wasn't sure. And now I have a 25% chance of this happening again. Please pray this medicine works! I go back in a month to check the progress.
