I’ve worn eyeglasses since I was in the 8th grade. At the time it was mostly so I could see the blackboard at school.
Over the years and with the natural progression of age, I’ve seen many normal changes occur to my vision, especially my night vision.
But, (and there’s always a “but” these days) since participating in the clinical research study last year that resulted in numerous neurological issues throughout my body, my vision became affected too.
I’ve been so overwhelmed over the last 17 months trying to fix my body as a whole, an approach which has left me feeling beyond defeated lately as my symptoms continue to escalate; and in more recent weeks, with the onset of several new ones. I’ve pretty much given up on any hope that the broken circuit in my brain will eventually just repair itself, so instead, my new approach of late has been trying to tackle each individual issue separately.
My eyes being one of them.
It’s exhausting.
I hadn’t had my eyes checked in some time.
I went to see a new doctor this time so she didn’t have any of my lengthy medical history on file. After giving her a brief synopsis of it and a quick overview of the clinical study I did last year that has since left my eyes very blurry, causing debilitating disruptions throughout my day, feelings of double vision and struggling to focus on many daily tasks; even while wearing glasses.
The doctor was extremely patient and kind throughout the entire exam. She listened with intent and asked lots of questions.
She also recommended I start a new vitamin regime and use eye drops when needed to help alleviate some of my symptoms.
As I continue on my journey, my very tiresome journey, now tackling each individual issue one by one, I will do so with only the best of intentions in mind, to seek out “a fresh pair of eyes” at every turn.
