Iritis NOT I rites

[eye2dry]

 

I couldn't see anything the day I typed previous "I rites" topic.

I also typed sclerosis and not scleritis.

I am not much better than before and recheck is tomorrow.

Wonder what is next?  No one else have this?

I do it all the time. Combination of my brain fog and blurry eyesight!

I have not had this and don't know a lot about it, but do know that it is something that comes with autoimmune conditions. It is vital that good treatment is used. If you are wondering about what is going on you may want a second opinion.

There have been quite a few on this site who have had iritis and you should get some good input. Good luck. Irish

update.

today/Monday, I went for recheck and my left eye is much improved. I now how to
taper off my prednisone eye drops. He said my "connective tissue disease(s)" are most
likely the culprit for my iritis attack. It may never happen again or maybe it will......great!


while there my eye dr. gave me advice on the eclipse.

don't rely on approved special sunglasses...there are counterfit ones out there probably
(even if it has an official looking approval seal)

the eclipse is 3 hours long but you are not to look at it more than 3 minutes with
the special glasses.

he advised to stay in and just look at it getting dark out from inside your home OR
watch it on TV


take care

Glad it's better now!

I agree ... I really would not trust those glasses. It's not worth the chance. I bet there will be tons of lawsuits.
