Hi i am 21 years old male, i have a moving cloudy spot in my right eye and it distorts my vision(everything behind it disappears like a blind spot except light which is cloudy behind it). I had brain surgery two weeks ago to remove a benign tumor and i am on keppra. I have high blood pressure and high cholesterol. The spot appeared yesterday.

    I have no idea what this is but PLEASE go and get it checked out ASAP. If in UK you could ring 111 for advice, alternatively go to A&E. Take care and keep in touch.

    Hello, I looked up Keppra!  I see it is for epilepsy.  You should talk to the clinician who prescribed it & he may refer you to an ophthalmologist.

    Don't leave this, talk to one of your doctors & good luck.

    Is the surgeon's appt for the one who removed the tumour?

      Did your surgeon think the tumour might be responsible for the epilepsy?

      I hope all goes well for you today.

      I don't have epilepsy. The tumor caused a constant headache so i had some tests and they found the tumor and removed it. Keppra is for just for precaution after the surgery. I went to the doctor he said it is a scotoma and i am going for visual field test tommorow.

      Ah! Now I understand,  I hope your visual field test goes well tomorrow. 

      I have just been re-reading your original post, perhaps the surgery will cure all the other problems eventually.

      Do let us know how you get on & good luck.

      I am wondering if it is floaters. Is it just the one cloudy spot or are there other squiggles or blobs?
