New drops- Tiopex 0.1 gel drops
Hello everyone,I've just been prescribed Tiopex 0.1 gel drops for in the mornings in addition to Brinzolomide 3 times a day and Lumigan at night. (This is to get my pressures down from 16 to ideally 12!) The leaflet says that l should use the other eye drop first, before the Tiopex. Hope this is okay

Cataract surgery post Trabeculectomy
Had a trab 6 months ago and the blurry vision never disappeared. Now they want to do cataract surgery and I am hesitant as it may fail the trab surgery that was already done successfully. Has anybody had an experience with the blurry eye after surgery or pls share your experience with cataract surgery

Cogan's syndrome
Hello! So I was diagnosed with Cogan's in Oct 23. It all started with severe ear pain after my second COVID vaccine which progressed to hearing and balance issues. This resolved after 3 weeks but I got the same symptoms again after my 3rd vaccine. Again this resolved but returned and gradually worsened

PV - Critical Illness insurance claim?
I was diagnosed with PV last year. I am struggling with work and feeling very anxious and realise I have a life with critical illness policy with LV but am not sure if PV is covered. It doesn't appear to be listed explicitly. LV boast that they meet the ABI guidelines for critical illness. Can anyone

My first Group 1 DVLA eye test
Hi, I joined this community a day ago to find out more about the test that the DVLA have asked me to take because I suffer from Glaucoma in both eyes. There is a lot of useful information here and it was good to read other people's experiences. I was very apprehensive, as so much rides on the outcome

NHS waiting time
I have recently gone private due to lack of confidence in NHS eye clinic. This sadly has proved correct following an optic nerve scan showed considerable loss of vision and that I need urgent operations. The consultant asked me whether I had a scan in nhs clinic I said maybe when I had cataracts op

Eye issues and tapering to 0 pred
Hello, two questions for you. One, has anyone has a retinal macroaneurysm? I was very recently diagnosed during a routine examination and wondered if it was common among PMR patients? I have had uveitis in the past. Two, I have tapered from 40 mg to 1 mg over the past 5 years for PMR. I am wondering

2nd Vitreous Detachment
I had small, definite, round floaters that happened when I was outside. I started noticing the circular flashes on the left outside periphery of my left eye. My right eye had a vitreous detachment 4 years ago. I made an overdue optometry appointment the next day, surprisingly on the next day. They

Yet another update on Swollen Eye
Back at Moorfields Eye Hospital today. It remains a mystery why my right eye has been such a problem. Good news is that it is better, however, eye pressure increased in both eyes now, (29 R and 21L). Face aches (not a joke) and heavy headache in the mornings which improves as the day goes on. In the

bloodshot eye and Graves
I got this today out of the blue. Going to have it checked tomorrow. I wonder if this is to do with Graves/TED? I’m currently on 2.5mg carbimazole.

change in eye drops
Newbie here. I’ve been diagnosed with glaucoma in my right eye and high IOP in left since 2022. I’ve been on Monoprost drops in both eyes since ‘22 and they were working fine as far as I know. I’ve had a yearly appointment at the hospital, which is a virtual clinic ie no doctor. My pressures were up

Inhaler and taste
Hello, I’m currently taking Seretide 50 Evohaler, always with an aero chamber. Despite this, I find a lot of the medicine ends up on my mouth, especially my tongue, and that i end up losing a lot of my taste. Has anyone else had this? I make sure I gargle with water and brush my teeth after taking,

dizziness of visual origin
I have GCA but, so far, no eye problems. 3 weeks ago I had a cataract operation. Ever since I have been having visual disturbances (things seem to shimmer) that upset my balance. They are helped by wearing polaroid sunglasses, but indoors that often makes things so dark that I can't see what I am

Howdy all, me again.Had a telephone appt with my EP following April's cardioversion. All has been well, touch wood, but still waiting for my valve repair op, so the EP is going to chat to the surgeon (I've left messages on his secretary's voicemail but she hasn't got back to me). Meantime, he has advised

Update and Double Vision Query
Hi Thanks for all the replies I have received. My update: I had a trabulectomy revision on my right eye in May 2024. Eye sight has been restored in my right eye - however the right eye lid was always droopy but is now worse and if I try to open the eyelid up I get double vision or ghost vision
