I have surgery-ready cataracts; I have recurring episodes of what looks like an official seal,round with pointed edges in the outer corner of my right eye. Sometimes it will pulsate, and other times it is just there,and will remain for a period of time, a few minutes to several hours. When this occurs, I get a fairly severe headache, and it is difficult to focus.
I have mild optic nerve damage in the right eye, but no other problems.
Is this what is referred to as a starburst? Is there any help for it? Is this connected to the cataracts? Help!!!!!
