I went to my eye doctor today after having months of flashing lights and small shining circles in my eyes. I thought it was due to having all the migraines since December 2015.
It had got so bad I was having problems reading or typing. So if you see a typing mistake it's my crazy eyes showing a blank or looks blurry.
I was run through several test before seeing my eye doctor. He checked my right eye and finally found one lens I could see pretty good but not perfect and then went to my left eye. All I could see was a big blue glob. He took camera shots of both eyes to look behind my eyes. My left eye is much worse. He said I have macular edema. I have a pocket of fluid behind my eyes and I'll need shots in my eyes.
I told my eye doctor if they wanted to do an MRI, it would have to be soon as I'm having a pacemaker on the 24 of May 2018. He made the appointment for the next day in Edmond, Ok near the Oklahoma Heart hospital when I was on life support (April 2016) and then stayed 15 days across Memorial at Mercy rehab.
After I got home from eye appointment, I read up on macular edema, it says it might have come due to the laser surgeries. I had laser surgery on left eye May 2014 and laser surgery on right eye June 2014 or they said it could be due to a recent fall. I fell December 9, 2017, when I tripped over a cord and fell down hitting my back and head on a hard oak floor. I have daily headaches and back pains and need more surgery on my back.
