Fuch's Dystrophy?
by sparky3, May 10, 2007 12:00AM
This is a follow up to a question I posted before about one eye always being blurry after in the morning.
One eye is always very, very blurry when I sleep, but usually clears up after a minute or two of rubbing and blinking, blinking and rubbing. This had a sudden onset (about two months ago)and doesn't seem to be going away. I was wondering if this could be Fuch's or if Fuch's would not clear up that quickly? Or could this be just another symptom of dry eye?
Thank you
