Thank very much for your response. I failed to mention that I have normal pressure gloucoma since 1994. I am with a Gloucoma specialist since 1998 and he has been able to stabilize the IOP. Infortunate the previous Physician failed to prescribed the proper prescription and I lost the center vision in the right eye. Luckily the left eye is good. However I needed a catarac operation and my eye doctor felt it was neccessary to perform a canaloplasty at the same time to prevent high IOP during and after the procedures.
As far as the problem I had with the vision, it has cleared up after Pred Forte was increased. I can see weel. I do not need glasses to work on the computer and while drivng. Thank you again for your help. Peter

Have each of these Eye MDs check your eye (glaucoma and retina). Have them do an amsler grid and visual field exam.

If they can't find anything ask them to refer you for another opinion.
