Blurry vision

[LouLamb]

I’ve got a red mark under my left eye which appeared roughly Thursday I think . It’s getting redder and sore.

Today at work just before half 8 I got blurry vision in my left eye. The best way to describe it is that it felt like my vision was blurry around the eye. It last for maybe 20 mins felt like hours. It hasn’t happened before and has been fine all day since.

Any ideas or any suggestions as to what I need to do about it ?

I’m on steroids , leflunomide and hydroxy .

Hi LouLamb,

Don’t take any chances with eyes, get it looked at by a doctor straightaway do you have a local walk in eye hospital?

You are more prone to rubbing it when there is a problem and can irritate it even more.

Eyes are so important and so easy to get something in it.

Good luck, hope you have a good Christmas and a healthy 2019.

We don’t have an eye hospital as far as I know.

My asked in the chemist about it and he told me to ring me consultant. So I’m going to do that.

Do you think I should make an appointment with gp?

I had an eye test last weekend and my eyes were all fine according them.

If you don’t have a hospital get an emergency appt with GP to get checked out. It may be nothing but worth checking.🤓

I agree with MEW. Eyes are too precious to ignore any problems. Please check with your GP x

I think I’ll make an appointment with gp then.

It was quite scary .
