I have had ON or optic neuritis several times. now I have ...whats the name of that syndrome? someone will chime in im sure. When I get over heated or over stressed I go blind. not "who turned out the lights" blind, but like someone smeared vaseline on my eye glasses blind. Everything gets fuzzy and smeared. I think its uhtoffs (bad spelling) ON is the only reason I will take steroids. I save them for the really bad stuff like eyesight. My clinic wanted me to take them willy nilly and I said NO! Just let my body figure it out, unless I cant walk or cant see.

my vision normally clears once I have cooled down, calmed down or slept for at least 20 minutes. I do find that I can easily get visually confused. Fast scrolling text, fast moving movies, fast moving traffic or other events can leave me rubbing my eyes begging for rest.
