thanks that was indeed helpful
Thank you for taking the time to educate us on the eye. I have MS and diabetes type 2 so I am always concerned about my eyes. I appreciate you very much. God bless you and your family.
Thank you! It's very rewarding to me that these videos can help people out.
I have a friend that is legally blind now because the first doctor that seen her didn't catch what she had. The doctor made her feel like she was crazy. My friend was so discouraged by the first doctor it took her over a year to see a different doctor. It's sad because if that doctor would have caught this she would still have her vision.
Hi there. Could you kindly let me know that as I've been diagnosed with glaucoma. I'll be having cataract surgery soon. After that will it be safe to have laser surgery to drain water so I don't have to use drops. Will appreciate your guidance. Thank you.
I had acute closed angle glaucoma in both eyes. It was painful. My eyes were red and watery. I had a headache but I did not realize it was an emergency. I waited 3 days. The only reason I went to the doctor was I couldn’t see my computer at work. The eye doctor sent me straight to the eye surgeon. I had surgery on my right eye that day and surgery on my left eye the next. It significantly damaged my sight.
Is it normal to see a "rainbow Halo's around lights?"
According to my eye doc, I apparently had some different type of glaucoma called neovascular glaucoma, which is a secondary type of glaucoma where blood vessels that form due to ischemia clog up the part of the eye that drains excess fluid. For me, the ischemia probably came from the radiation treatments I got for cancer in my right eye when I was a baby. It has caused rampant neovascularization in that eye. Can you talk about that at some point? I’d be really interested.
Doc, i experienced left eye pain, nausea and vomiting (feels like my eye is coming out) last year but it went away after a rest. Went to an ophthalmologist the next day but he didn't tell me what it is, he just prescribes an eyewear, should i go to another ophthalmologist? It happened again last march, can they'll able to detect if i have glaucoma even tho i dont feel those symptoms again?
I went to er after blind glaucomatose left Eye caused the pain described in the video and sent home in bright sun with rx I already had and predisolone which caused more pain and er trip and doctors said I will lose sight in both eyes then referring me to more experienced ophthalmologist that takes 2 months for appointment and no emergency treatment or hospitals to stabilize pain and photophobia to help do basic daily living tasks for
After getting cataract surgery, frequent dry eye heat mask treatments, fish oil supplements, and regular exercise, my eye pressure is now consistently below 20. I was an extreme double digit myope. I now no longer take any glaucoma meds.
Wondering if you saw anyone else who could lower his or her eye pressures with lifestyle changes post-op? This didn't happen immediately after surgery either. I didn't make these changes until more than 6 months after surgery.
Yes I have... I have seen people make healthier lifestyle changes that causes lower eye pressure. But doesn't seem to work on everybody, unfortunately.
Hello Dr EyeGuy, I have a multipurpose solution that says I should soak new lens for 10 minutes, is it recommended since I've heard people say that new lenses should be soaked for atleast 4 hours
Yeah, most solutions are longer than 10 minutes... usually 4 or 6 hours. What multipurpose solution is it?
It is called eyedia multipurpose solution
@@chainsmoker6628 When I download the insert, it says to soak for at least 6 hours.
@DrEyeGuy thanks so much for the information Doc ^_^
are electronic eye massagers useful?
No, not for glaucoma or eye pressure.
@@DrEyeGuy sorry, for dry and tired eyes?
Can you use eyedrops for dry eyes with mild narrow angles? I went to an eye center but I did not get this type of information. They did not even tell me anything about archs in my iris. I feel I paid a lot and did not accomplish anything.
Lubricant or artificial tears won't affect narrow angles. So yeah, it's safe to use eyedrops for dry eyes
@@user-xe5vn3dd5s Thank you so much.
