DVLA Esterman Test - trial test?
Hi I am awful at hospital visual field tests.. I get anxious, my eyes dry up, I worry if I blink I’ll miss a light, I’m hesitant to click on lower light blips (I’m overly cautious.. don’t know why!). I fret I didn’t press the buzzer when I should have (I.e. was that a dim light or not?) then miss the

Euthyroid Thyroid Eye Disease
I have had problems with one eye for 9 months now. Started with gritty feeling, watering eye. Inflammation and baggy eye bags. Then fatty bumps appeared to be coming through above one eye, and one eye ball seems slightly higher than the other, and pushed forward slightly. Then came the double vision

Dry Eye / Irritated
Hello, I had aqueous shunts over a year ago, my eyes always feel really tight. It’s hard to explain. I think my bleb is rubbing on my under eye lid slightly. Anyway, ive got the thleoz drops from the GP as I use that many a month, they don’t seem to touch it. The only drops that I felt worked was

Reduce screen time with the FREE Google Docs speech typing and editing tool.
Continuing with the tech for visual issues the RNIB tech guy suggested narrator for windows. This is where the software speaks to you and describes what is on the computer screen. Looks good if you are blind or severely visually impaired. You need to have windows 365 to use it meaning you have to buy

Simponi aria infusion
I’ve had two infusions and my RA is much better. The draw backs are my mouth mucosal is raw and dry. Eating only soft foods and lidocaine mouthwash to help. My eye dryness is good on some days. Still using prescription drops. I’m still loosing hair. All this with no pain is a Catch 22. Still fatigue

DVLA field tests
I have had glaucoma for over 30 years and my licence has had to be renewed every 3 year when I have to have a DVLA field test to renew my licence. I had my latest field test 16 months ago which I failed due to having 4 dots missing on the chart. My acuity is better than 20/20 vision and my pressures

worsening vision left eye
I posted earlier a few weeks ago about problems with my left eye, the vision getting worse. Far distance looked like my vision did before cataract surgery- not distinct. I also posted about an ER visit that happened two weeks ago because of severe vomiting, diarrhea, rapid heartbeat and dehydration

Psychiatric Somatisation disorder suggested before thyroid dysfunction diagnosis?
Just out of interest, how many people have been fobbed off with a suggestion or diagnosis of a psychiatric/psychological disorder whilst trying to get a diagnosis of thyroid dysfunction? I think it must be quite common. When it happened to me I was shocked. (Can you believe it?!) At the time I found
