optm: I am back sir. I complained to the eye doctor I met, he examined, he made mention of DILATE, poured some liquid to the eye, then I rested for some time. After that he gave me some drugs and eye drop to use for three days, he also recommended I use shade glasses for the period. I just want to hear your opinion about it Thanks in advance |

I will advise that you go and see an Ophthalmologist not an OPTOMETRIST... From your description, i sincerely hope it is not a case of Retina Detachment. Please do not joke with it. Thank you I don't know what he checked exactly, he checked with touch light, he con check again with one instrument that direct light Ray and he can view at the same time The medicine he gave me was Dolo-Meta B, vitamin c and Betnew eye drop[/quote] |

Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by Holawhumy: 4:16pm On Jun 11, 2020 |
If you are in Lagos, you can visit Eye Foundation Hospital, 27 Isaac John Street, GRA, Ikeja, Lagos State. There is a branch in Ijebu, Abeokuta, VI, Lekki and Abuja. However, the Vitreo-Retina specialist is usually in Ikeja and Abuja. You can see if there is any change between today and tomorrow, if no changes, please see a doctor. Take care wemmy01: |

Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by wemmy01(m): 4:38pm On Jun 11, 2020 |
Holawhumy: I am not in Lagos but in Abia state, umuahia Is there hope of seeing one at a federal medical center |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by Holawhumy: 4:52pm On Jun 11, 2020 |
You can visit FMC in Umuahia, i am sure tou will see an Ophthalmologist there, then if you need to see a retina surgeon, then they can refer you. There is a shortage in the supply of Vitreo-Retina specialists in Nigeria, infact you can count them. Dont allow your heart to be troubled, it might not be that deep.. Just watch till tomorrow. wemmy01: |

Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by oluwaseun8(m): 7:44pm On Jun 11, 2020 |
Good evening sir, whats the cause for eyelid moving or shaking by itself? |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by optm(m): 8:24pm On Jun 11, 2020 |
oluwaseun8:most times it's stress related, althogh i'll advise you to do an eye exam to rule out refractive errors as eye strain could also contribute to that and also cut down on caffine consumption if you use caffine. |

optm: I could see them in my vision sir, I couldn't see at night with the affected eye especially from the bottom unless I use touch light even though I could see clearly with the unaffected eye Also from the bottom, I am having a vision with some little colour changes. like a reduced saturation i.e I won't see a white colour as a plain white colour |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by Masdec: 6:22am On Jun 12, 2020 |
optm:Is there any chance it's actually gone for good or it might still bounce back. I don't want to get my hopes too high up. Thanks |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by optm(m): 9:10am On Jun 12, 2020 |
wemmy01:this is quite serious. Please go seek a second opinion. These are symptoms of retinal detachment and should be given an urgent attention. just as someone suggested earlier, u would be needing a retinal surgeon if investigations confirms a retinal detachment and they have one at eye foundation. Check them out ASAP |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by optm(m): 9:20am On Jun 12, 2020 |
Masdec:it is an intermitten stabismus and there might be occassions that could make it noticeable . take him back to the doc for re evaluation . Your child would be fine. It shouldnt be a thing to cause you much worry; as u can see it's getting better . |
