im no doctor but i guess unless it is directly in the eye they will not be able to see a tumor. However if your eyes do not move or follow correctly this could point to something.
high pressure in the eye is a sign of gloucoma.
They only take 2 free ?'s a day, after is a fee to post. As far
as an answer, the eye can be dilated by an Opthalmologist & they
can see in & vessels behind eyeball. If signs of papilledema
(vessel swelling) are present, they'll refer you to Neuro for a
scan. A tumor must be in a vascular path causing interruption.
Papilledema is also present w/ severe hypertension that can be
causing a pressue build up for eye doc to see. A cyst in a
specific brain lobe area shows this symptom too. Most of the
time, a clinical evaluation suggests more testing. How you walk/
talk/words used/+labs are better than asking Opthalmologist if
they think I have a tumor. You are probably thinking of a
pseudo-tumor. Pseudo means 'not/fake' but mimics pressure or
sometimes a slight brain distubance. Talk to your Dr. Sounds
like you're anxious abt something?
Well, I have constant headaches and I'm hoping it's from eye strain. So if I go to the eye doctor, I was thinking maybe they could see if it was something more serious if it wasnt eye strain.
I took my father for an eye exam and the doctor seemed very concerned about what he saw in his eyes. He told us he needed to see a doctor right away for scans. We did and my dad had brain cancer. What exactly the doctor saw we don't know because we did not asked. I was young and dumb and should have asked more questions of the eye doctor because I often wonder what it was he saw. I have heard doctors can see many thing through your eyes not only cancers.
yes, an opthamologist can diagnose brain tumors, the eyes are the window to the mind.
wow this is also geat help for me!!!
im getting my eyes checked NEXT WEEK!!
yeowwwwwwwwwww!!>.<
