Thanks. That was 16 mos ago. I lost 89% vision in my left eye.
I want you to get better help. I will hod onto that for the future.
You also can visit the website SREEDHAREEYAM and consult the doctors. You will benefit.
Yes. You might try an eye doctor who has training in /retinas/retina surgery. Find one at www.aaa.org. They are called retinologists or vitreoretinal specialists.
My symptoms were there when I saw an ophthalmologist. But he made light of them. TWO DAYS later the symptoms worsened. The doctor woud not return my call. The ERs would not help. Please get help right away.
Most eye doctors would be more helpful than the one I had. I am giving you my story just to let you know that it can happen. No matter who you see, insist on help.
The best to you.
Let us know if you have more questions.
Some retina problems need to be caught. WITHIN THE FIRST 2 WEEKS. We do not know when this started. So it is of the most urgency.
You must see an ophthalmologist Monday morning. You could have a number of serious problems from retinal detachment, blood clots in the retina, TIA, ophthalmic migraine.
There is no higher ranking eye specialist than an ophthalmologist. Some ophthalmologists subspecialize in : retina, glaucoma, oculoplastic, pediatrics, neuroophthalmology, cornea/refractive, low vision, cataract/anterior chamber.

I am not a doctor, but have last the vision in my left eye due to a very bad accident. ALL the doctors have said I have lost the vision for good and I have to get rid of the left eye so the right eye can be saved. I have consulted about five major eye hospitals in India, seven university hospitals in USA, two in UK, three in Germany and two in Australia. Every one said I have no hope.
One of my friends from US suggested I consult one specific Ayurvedic Eye Hospital in India mentioning several patients with problem declared not curable were corrected by that hospital and they may have some thing for me.
I visited them and found that these people know what they are doing. My left eye which had shrunk totally and had no pressure at all has started grwoing in size and I can feel pressure is building. Once the eye grows sufficiently, they will look into correcting my retina. It is a slow process, but without any surgery or laser treatment.
In case your retinal specialist says nothing can be done for your eye, please get into the website "SREEDHAREEYAM", you can get some idea. They mention they have a magic wand by weilding which they can restore the vision and I think they are right in that claim.
Cost of treatment and living expenses for three weeks will be around US $ 1,000.00, plus your travel to the hospital. It may be necessary to make three or four visits.
The hospital is safe from every point of view and there are several Europeans, Canadians and US nationals who visit them regularly for treatment and find improvement.
