Eye Problem

[MargC1000]

Dear Forum

I have no sight in my left eye. My right eye which had perfect vision, has since last October, suffered from Posterior Vitreous Detachment which not only causes floaters but also a permanent veil over my vision. Hence my vision has deteriorated and I am now unable to drive because I cannot read the signs or vehicle number plates. Also my Eye is extremely sensitive to light now, whereas it was not before. The consultants agree that I have PVD but are unable to grasp that my vision has become worse and state that I should still be able to see. Also they do not understand as to why I cannot tolerate normal daylight or vehicle lights.
Confused!

You can ask the eye doctor. Ask about the eye of expertise. I believe this will be useful to you.

I believe that your best help would come from a "Low vision" specialist in your city/area or at a major hospital Eye Clinic. They seem to be more informed about unusual eye problems, more empathetic, and more movitated to help find a solution to your problem. They seem more willing to search and research for other doctors who can help you, Good luck!

The best decision is to consult a doctor. No one knows about your problem more than he does.

Hello Friends,

Here I just want to give a light on the disease. In posterior vitreous, vitreous humour separates from the retina. There are some symptoms of PVD:-

Flashes of light that is called photopsia, Sudden increment in the number of floaters.

Here are some helpful Eye Care Tips:-

Be Careful while choosing place from your computer:
Your computer should at proper position from your eyes. Arrange the keyboard and screen in such way that you can relax your feet and wrist. Maintain the proportion of brightness on your computer screen.

Take time out, after every 20 minutes:
While working on computer take gap in between after every 20 minutes by turning your vision on other objects. Continuously staring on computer screen can be harmful to eyes.

Blink your eyes:
Blink your eyes after regular interval of time. This is really helpful for the proper blood circulation of eyes.

Splash water on your eyes in breaks. This will help you to clean your eyes as well as it gives refreshment to eyes.
