Hello, just here for a bit of help. I have recently noticed that my right eye is darker and blurrier than my left when the lights are off. For example i was looking at my curtains on my left i can see the light going though but on my right i cant, It also feels like there is something on my eye i can't really describe it.

If you are confused please tell my and i will try my best to explain better. 😃

    This kind of symptom can be caused by many things, so you'll have to visit your eye doctor to find out for sure.

    The feeling of having something in your eye may mean that the top layers of your eye, the conjunctiva and cornea, are irritated or dry.

    As for the dificulty or impossibility to see in relatively low light, there is a vision problem called nyctalopia that corresponds to this symptom. The cause of this vision condition is a disorder of the rods in the retina that make it possible to see in dark environments.

    Some of the reasons for this condition may include myopia, cataracts, retinitis, vitamin A deficiency, and high glucose (sugar) levels in the blood or diabetes.

    Since each case of nyctalopia has a cause, only an eye doctor can determine what is causing it and how to treat it.
