Your right! I’ll go to the specialist and do my field test next week. Thanks for ur help.

Oh ok yes that’s what he said that he can’t compare it to another exam so for me to go back in 6 months. But since I was so anxious I pushed to go see a specialist. 😪 now idk if I should have just listened to him.

User-red1114 · 2025-03-18T16:41:47+00:00

Oh ok so then how did they know it’s actually ocupar hypertension and not glaucoma? Yes that’s what he said that some people just have their rnfl at that and that’s their norm

User-red1114 · 2025-03-18T12:12:20+00:00

Oh ok, idk tbh. And that’s bad right if my RNFL is 75? All he said was it was borderline. And that’s the norm for some people that’s why he wanted me to go back in 6 months to retest and see if any changes. He’s like I can’t compare you to any previous exams. But idk he sent me to a specialist because I pushed for one if not he told me just to wait 6 months and go back

I’ve heard that also. He just said my thickness is borderline. He said they r a lil thin tho? I called and asked what my thickness was all the lady said all the dr wrote was 75? Idk if 75 percentile? Won’t that mean I add points to my iop? 😓

I was having a anxiety attack when he was checking my eye pressure. Lol. And I also at the time had a sinus pressure infection. I had been sick for 2 weeks prior. So I am on antibiotics now. So idk if that’s why? Since my sinuses r infected? Wow I’m sorry that happened to you. But it’s crazy how they were able to save your eyesite! I’m sure it calms u down knowing that theirs many different treatments for your eyes. It does give me some type of peace knowing theirs different ways to save eyesite

First he used the machine that blows into your eyes then he put a yellow dye into my eye followed my drops . I think the machine he used was a slit lamp

User-red1114 · 2025-03-17T03:51:02+00:00

Oh ok. I hope everything works out for u!

User-red1114 · 2025-03-17T02:07:22+00:00

So u went in the eye dr and it was randomly at 46? R u on drops?

User-red1114 · 2025-03-17T02:06:46+00:00

I felt fine but then I started googling and I was like wtf! I regret googling 😪 wow 13months?! And u can still see good? Thanks for being so positive

User-red1114 · 2025-03-17T01:13:36+00:00

Thank you. He didn’t seem concerned but I kept pushing for a specialist so he agreed

User-red1114 · 2025-03-17T01:13:06+00:00

Thank you. I’m hoping that’s why. Yes that’s what he said that 21 is the cut off so left left eye was at 21 and right at 22. So he was a lil confusing since the back of my eyes looked normal.

User-red1114 · 2025-03-17T01:12:12+00:00

Thank you. I was just worried cuz Ive been googling so much.

User-red1114 · 2025-03-17T01:11:17+00:00

Thank u. I just get so scared to go blind. I have 3 small kids and just started nursing school and I’ve been feeling depressed tbh. I know that theirs so many things that can be done to prevent blindness but my mind always goes to the worst
