I posted this in another forum, but got no response, so I'll try here.

I have a SIL who has suffered with migraines all her life. She also has a sister with MS. Now for her situation today. She went to her opthamologist in Nov. for her regular eye exam/prescription. He dilated her eyes or whatever he usually does, but after that appt. she started getting severe headaches, and started losing her vision.

They did an MRI suspecting ON & MS, but no lesions. They didn't do the dye because it was normal. Anyway, she had an angiogram of her eye the other day, and they told her that her eye is perfectly fine, but the nerve is damaged, and won't get better.

They are sending the tests on to specialists in Salt Lake, because they can't put a finger on what may have caused the blindness. I guess your eye is divided into three parts, one is totally black, one gray, and one white. So she is only seeing a small portion with the one eye.

She is very depressed and I'd like to give her some advice/direction that may help her with this problem.

I have MS, but have never had any troubles with ON, so I don't know if what she is experiencing could be ON, or some other weird disease. She has had a lot of stress lately because she has been taking care of her mother who has alzheimers.

Any help/advice would be appreciated!
