GCA flares and eyesight
Thank you to everybody on this site – I have found it very helpful. I was diagnosed with GCA in September. I have to say my GP and Bath Hospital were excellent though it was a shock. My sight tested OK in the Eye Clinic. I started on 60 prednisolone reducing, and I am coping quite well, but I am paranoid

Anyone opted for private Cataract surgery?
Hi, I have seronegative RA and am on Benepali. Have just had a routine eye test and been told I need cataract surgery. I thought I needed new glasses but it turns out it's cataracts! Anyway my optician has referred me on the NHS via my GP but I'm wondering about going private as I have no idea how long

Sjogrens - eye pain/migraine
I'm getting severe headaches that are around my eyes. I wake up with my head & eyes killing me. Is this just dry eyes? My light sensitivity is off the charts. Has anyone else expierenced this? Is this a Sjogren symptom?

Hi all. I have had concussion since August, after a fall when I banged my head. Although improving, I have a problem with bright light/glare
As above - I had a fall in August and banged my neck, chin. I am improving but can't deal with light (as in a bright sky), or glare. I also have difficulty when there is a lot of noise (as in grandchildren!). I can't wear earphones.... Does anyone know of research into coloured lenses and how certain

Cataract surgery advice please.
I've got glaucoma and I'm very short sighted. The left eye has got the glaucoma. The right eye isn't affected much with it yet, but does have the cataract. After they fit the new lens in my right eye, my shortsightedness apparently might be rectified. This will give me an enormous discrepancy between

Starbursts from new glasses driving me insane. Can anyone help?
Hi, I recently got 2 new pairs of glasses, one with Transitions lenses and one 'plain'. There's been a lot of faff with the Transitions because I didn't like the frames, but right at the outset I noticed I was suddenly getting these epic starbursts on lights (with both pairs), particularly in the distance

update: Zanabrutinib vs Obenven (O&V)
We are praying for Gods wisdom (James1:5), and we’re leaning toward the Zanabrutinib. The infusions and time and distance will be impactful to my husbands work and he’s prefer to go the simpler route. We learned he’s still 13Q and TP53 negative and his lymph nodes are reduced (we have used ALT for

Surgery and immuno suppressants
Hi everyone. I am due to have minor surgery on my wrist and have been asked by my surgeon to cease taking mycophenolate for a week before and a week after my operation (I presumed because of possible risk of infection?). I spoke to my rheumatologist about this and she considered it unnecessary to stop

Lipoid pneumonia
Earlier this year I had serious nose bleeds resulting in hospital admissions and cautery. Subsequently seen by ENT consultant who advised daily insertion of Vaseline into nostrils to prevent them drying out and possible further bleeds. Since then I found on the internet (various reputable sites)

Webinar: What causes photopsia and photophobia in patients with Stargardt and what impact does it have on their lives?
Flashing lights in vision (photopsia) or discomfort due to bright light or glare (photophobia) is often experienced by patients with Stargardt. However, little is understood about what causes these symptoms, their prevalence or the impact they can have on people’s lives. Omar Mahroo, consultant ophthalmologist

Macular Hole
Hi, long term PMR/GCA sufferer been on 4mg for long enough and staying there! However I developed a macular hole which needed surgery. Has anyone else had this problem, is there likely any association of cause with GCA /PMR or Pred? Surgery done now and I have to wait and see how successful it is.

Has the Pulsed Field Ablation technique increased success rate?
Although Flecainide 50mg bid has kept AF episodes to a much lower frequency, 6 in ‘23, I’d like to hear from a few more of you who have undergone this new procedure. What are the results; is the blanking period shorter; anyone had it done at Royal Bournemouth Hospital? I hear reports that it’s much

Carbomer eye gel
Good morning. I was at the ophthalmologist yesterday getting umpteen scans and things due to taking hydroxychloroquine. I have very dry eyes once the UV starts to increase (usually February so bang on time). The ophthalmologist gave me carbomer eye gel to use before I go to bed and told me to continue
