monovision and the dominant eye26 Oct 2006 05:20 GMT10
I am now on my 4th attempt at lenses that work and still no go.
After severe dizziness from the bifocal contact lens, we went back to trying
monovision.  I had slight monovision the last 10 years, so he made it
stronger.
the care and feeding of RPGs vs soft lenses25 Oct 2006 21:54 GMT1
Do any of you use Saline Solution at all with your RPGs?  I always thought
Saline Solution was for soft lenses only, and in fact when I looked at the
box in the store it only mentions soft lenses.
This new optometrist office said something that made me think I am supposed
RGP residual astigmatism25 Oct 2006 14:16 GMT11
I've got my RGP's dialed in pretty well.  The doc "maxed out" the
diameter and the OZ and fixed most of the trouble I was having with
night vision issues and seeing the edges.  The last small complaint I
have is that the vision is slightly variable in one eye (tack sharp
who can explain this visual "disorder" (or mutation)?25 Oct 2006 04:04 GMT1
I have yet to find an answer from eye doctors and psychogists.  I will
state the symptoms although it is extremely difficult for me to
describe.  I am 27 and have had this "disorder" for as long as I
remember.  Well here I go:  To my knowledge a "normal" person only has
movie projector - on the ceiling25 Oct 2006 03:21 GMT5
Is it okay for the eye to project a movie on the ceiling and watch it
while lying on the bed?

How the eye expands and contracts with the plus and minus lens.24 Oct 2006 22:16 GMT32
There are people who insist that a minus has no effect
on the refractive STATE of the natural eye.
The scientific reality is that it does.
Here are the animation graphics of that process.
Purvision Muliti-Focals, two week report24 Oct 2006 22:15 GMT1
I switched from the B&L Softlens Multi-Focals to  B&L Purevision
Multi-Focals two weeks ago. Both eyes were corrected for distance
vision, no monovision, and the reading power ordered was "high". I have
no astigmatism. This has resulted in 20/20 vision and I am able to read
Refractive STATES of the eye -- kept in the "open".24 Oct 2006 21:32 GMT5
Dear Prevention-minded scientific friends,
    When I suggested that we use a "plus" to keep your vision
clear through the school years -- it was because of the scientific
facts.
Bad Vision24 Oct 2006 10:57 GMT13
When I blink on a night time or against a light background like a cloud
the centre of my vision is a roundish black or white dot which
disappears after about 2 seconds.  I have had a few vision tests by
opticians and the eye hospital and they have said my retina and macular
Proven way to prevent myopia24 Oct 2006 09:54 GMT9
Hey folks, the "proof" is below, taller kids are more likely to be
myopic while short, fat kids are hyperopic.
Encourage your young childen to take up smoking to stunt their growth
and to watch more TV while eating donuts to put on weight.  Proven!
Long term risks of orthoK?24 Oct 2006 09:09 GMT19
In another thread, someone talked to his optometrist who said:
I also had a good long chat with the optometrist about visual
corrections in general but, for balance, it should be remembered that
he
Strabismus treatment24 Oct 2006 06:54 GMT34
What's the state of affairs in this area?
Are there any real and viable non-surgical alternatives?
Our son (nearly 8) has had this since very early in life (recognized
around 6 months of age).  He has absolutely perfect vision with each
How does a visual field test affect treatment?24 Oct 2006 06:18 GMT7
I have had a number of visual field tests. They have shown that I have
significant loss of vision in my left eye from central retinal vein
occlusion. Peripheral vision in that eye is good. I have slightly elevated
pressure in my right eye. I am supposed to get another visual field ...
I like migraine aurae, yet I dislike the rest of a migraine.24 Oct 2006 02:25 GMT4
I would like to experience a migraine aura as long as there is nothing
but the aura. I've read about the aura and find it both enjoyable and
scary. I like the visual symptoms, the dizziness, the numbness, etc.
I certainly would *not* want to have the headache phase or the
Are $1 glasses harmful?24 Oct 2006 01:36 GMT19
My Mum who's in her late sixties stocked up on several pairs of reading
and distance glasses at the dollar store.   They don't give her perfect
vision but she thinks it's crazy to spend hundreds for the difference
proper prescription lenses would make.
