Nicky, good news: your value of 16 for eye pressure is normal!
I initially had ptosis and DV but that went away after 2 months with the Pred treatment.
Yes, it is highly disappointing to have to go up again with Pred. I went into a relapse when I tried to go from 5mg/d to 4 combined to a vaccine shot last September.
Since then, I learned several things: forget shots when you have MG, never taper more than 10 % Pred at any one step and the last one: if you manage to go down to 5 mg/d, consider staying with that dosage, as it is about the natural cortisone production for my weight (75 kg).
What my neuro says is that MG doesn't affect the eye muscles which control focusing and sharpness (crystalline muscles?) but some people mention " blurry vision" which makes me believe she is wrong...
I had a problem after my first eye surgery, it is called "secondary cataract".
When they change the crystalline for an implant, they keep the envelope which is around the crystalline and there is a probability of 50% that, within 5 years, that envelope get clouded. The treatment is quick, effective and simple: Yag laser shots (around 15 in my case) lasting for a total of less than 2 minutes.
Maurice.
