I have glaucoma in both eyes an I was diagnosed at age 9. I'm on for eye drops for my eye pressures so I don't go blind. So far with taking my eye drops for glaucoma, my pressures have been really good. I am learning Braille in case glaucoma becomes Progressive and limits my site.

11 weeks ago- then 4 yr old given antibiotic for SIBO. 6 days later child became sick with a cold. 2 days later photosensitivity began along with abnormal heart rythym, occassional headaches, occassional eye pain, intense sore throat.. Cold progressed but doctors did not figure out it qas strep for another 5 weeks. Child treated. Photosensitivity progressed slowly, never improving. Chold free of all colds and all infection. Vrain CT showed no tumor, bkoodwork normal except for slightly high sugar. Two ER doctors.1 cardiologist. 1 optometrist. 4 pcps. No one can tell me why he can tolerate less than 20% of light. Eyes: sometimes blurry; sometimes painful; sometimes headaches. Sudden severe eye disturbances when he sees light are more regular, occuring at least a dozen times a day. Blurriness 2-6 times per day. Cannot look at any screen 90% of the time. Child likely has Ehlers Danlos Syndrome like his mother and all siblings. Child unusually clumsy x1yr. Told it was b/c of flat feet. Falls common. Head bumps common. No history of eye issues prior. 1 brother has severe Ambliopia and Strabismus, legally blind in one eye. No answers at all. Problem progressing. New symptom: Child smells things no one else can smell. Seeing eyes specialist and neurologist in 2 weeks. This is mom and i am desperate. Having EDS I am used to being falsely diagnosed. My instinct is that the antibiotic caused this. My family thinks its EDS related. OT thinks possible concussion syndrome. Father thinks strep related. Please.. Will accept and investigate all opinions. Im desperate to help my son.

I can never get a good eye exam. Every time I try to pick the lenses my eyes start watering up and straining. I end up giving "inconsistent" answers. Ugh... Today I had my eyes dilated. lol It was like my astigmatism went from -2 to -200 (in other words bad). . Everything was blurry and doubled.
