Blurred vision, but eye doctor said eyes are perfect!!!

Posted , 22 users are following.

Hi there,

I was hoping someone might help me. I have having blurred vision for the last while, I went to the optician and he said all was perfect that he would refer me to specialist.  The specialist also cannot find cause, that I am scoring perfect in every test she done. I also had an MRI brain and that was clear also. I got tested for Lymes disease but that blood test came back clear too. I have been having sensory problems too on my thigh, face and arm. I am not weak with it just the skin feels funny.

The consultant in the hospital said that she doesnt think its MS ,which was one of the reasons the GP referred me in to the hospital.

2 weeks later I am none the wiser.

I would very much appreciate anyones views on this.

Kindest regards

Aisling

    What is going on with us? My story is pretty much the same . For over six months now I have had days and sometimes weeks at a time of blur vision in my left eye. Some days are worse than others. It is not caused by computer, tv, or phone. MRI was normal, two eye exams normal, blood work normal. This is maddening. What is causing this?

    ...... I just read over this quickly from what I’m understanding you are consulting GPs or opticians or regular ophthalmologists ..

    I know first hand many Dr.s lack the knowledge or the equipment needed to diagnose specific disease or disorder such as retinal disease.

    Ask your GP to refer you to another ophthalmologist.....maybe in a metropolitan area that specializes in retina and vitreous disease. They have comprehensive knowledge of other eye diseases too.

    Hi, I saw this thread and just had to say wow. There's a lot of us. The blurred vision... Down to muscle spasms my optician says and as I'm having them everywhere else why not in the eyes.

    Running into the same exact thing. eye doctor said things are fine, my eyes just are not reading things properly. i also have been getting panic attacks this year. MRI showed everything normal. I am in my 30s fyi.

    any updates from anyone?

      I'm having the same problem, started a few months ago, also in my 30s, doctors don't know yet... sometimes I even lose close up vision and feel woozy.

      Its kinda scary...
