lobular and orbital eye Mets

[DDIL1]

Hi all

I know I saw a post on here a while ago about lobular MBC and orbital eye Mets. Just curious if anyone had been screened for it and how it was done and what your symptoms were if you had it?

Thank you

I have an eye met. It was diagnosed by a retinal specialist that I was sent to after a routine eye exam. The symptom was flashing lights in my eye similar to an optic migraine. That's what I thought it was until the diagnosis. None of the scans that my oncologist orders see the eye met.

How do they treat that? I hope your doing ok!!

Systemic drugs. The medication I'm on for the MBC also works on the eye met. So far it has shrunk in size and I no longer see the flashing lights.
