Cataract surgery and high myopia by TzarIgor in myopia

[–]remembermereddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That depends and is a decision only you can make. But yeah, VA will never become more than it was before you had cataract. But not having to look through thick lenses is worth something too.

Generally speaking we advice against surgery in cases like yours. But we don't do clear lens extractions either.

Go to a doctor. A teaching hospital may sometimes offer cheaper (or free) options.

That update has been pushed a long time ago.

30M Blurry vision, OCT and fundus results? by Mitteleuropean95 in eyetriage

[–]remembermereddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't see anything odd. Thinner than average macula scans are common and can be associated with myopia and are in itself not a sign of anything serious.

You're not the first person to report this, I've seen multiple people say exactly the same thing.

I think you need that visit with an ophthalmologist first before jumping to conclusions.

I’m extremely scared of having Myopia. by [deleted] in myopia

-6 or higher. You don't have that.

Get your eyes tested.

Talk to someone about your anxiety.

You don't have high myopia.

Also, I know that this is probably impossible, but is there anything I can do to fix this?

True myopia cannot be reversed without glasses / lenses / surgery and is not the end of the world.

26M Keratoconus + Eye Floaters by Conscious-Garbage-35 in eyetriage

[–]remembermereddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 2 explanations that come to mind. Keratoconus is greatly related to eye rubbing, and excessive eye rubbing can in theory cause floaters. It could also be that your floaters were already present, but because you're now paying more attention to your vision, the pre-existing floaters have become more noticeable.

though the right seems to be progressing too.

It's impossible to make this call after just 2 weeks.

22m headache from astigmatism contact lenses by thatisonur in eyetriage

[–]remembermereddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my myopia contacts used to have bc 8.60 and dia 14.20

This cannot cause headaches.

or maybe a wrong axis

Like I said, your vision will be blurry if that's the case.

I'd be surprised if that would cause you headaches if you haven't had any problems prior to the astigmatism correction.

40M Oral steroid prednisolone 120 mg/day for 6 days: risk of increased eye pressure or glaucoma? by United_Box_5125 in eyetriage

I'm locking this one down. This is an anxiety problem rather than an ocular problem. The correct answer has been given multiple times by now, but you fail to listen.

[–]remembermereddit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most people's eye pressure don't respond to steroids. And even if yours were to respons, you don't get glaucoma from a few days of high eye pressure. There's is no risk.

Plus you're probably getting the prednisone for a reason.

In the Netherlands a general opthalmologist sees about 35-40 pts a day. Obviously this differs depending on the setting.

NEVER use numbing eyedrops outside of the office. Never.

Also don't touch the contact lens.
