swollen optic nerve, diplaced gel, sudden deafness are they linked

by mad moment, May 03, 2007 12:00AM
Sudden deafness, verigo and sickness came on 4 weeks ago.  Two weeks later floaters appeared in the right eye.  I have had aCT scan and an MRI both came back clear. After a hearing test diagnosis was Menieres disease. Are the two related. I think it is more likely my loss of hearing is more likely to be labyrinthitis but I am at a total loss as to what the eye problem is. Any Ideas? It is all a bit worrying.

I am not a doctor but I doubt if they are related. I have Meniere Disease some 30 yrs ago and other than a slight hearing loss in one ear,everything else is fine and touch wood, no vertigo attack since. Don't know what your age is but it seems a lot of people over the age of 50 would start having floaters. It is a nuisance but you just have to learn to live with it. There is not much to worry about unless you start having flashes.
