My vision has just been weirdly different at times. After the last 3 SGB's, within a couple days experienced ocular migraines (scintillating scotomas and loss of central vision) which my PM doc says are related, the opthamologist thinks they may be but is really moot at this point. They last about 1/2 hour. Strange...

eyes
 
If you go to RSDhope, the founder got RSD in his eyes first so it can be in the eyes. I notice some medications give me blurred vision. I also sometimes get stinging in my eyes which i believe is this beautiful RSD!

Hi. I may have rsd in my eyes. I have severe eye pain,pressure,raw,dry I could go on. Over the past 3 years I have seen I would say 10 eye specialists 45 apts many meds,neuros,rheumatologist I could go on. Anyhow I have rsd in my legs. It is hard to find a doctor even ones that deal with rsd a lot to believe it can impact other areas but I feel from others I met it can. I hope that with proper treatment for the limbs it will also help the eyes. Of course I feel it is important to rule out other conditions. Some meds though impact sight but I would get into the eye doctor and just get them checked as a starting point. Hope you feel better

Surgery and he fix it I could see right away. After laying in bed all summer I thought it was over.

I have been very recently diagnosed with RSD (haven't even seen pain mgt dr yet) so this is all VERY new to me. I have noticed vision problems lately and was going to ask my doctor the next time I go in. However, I do suffer from migraines (sudden onset - might be related to RSD as well) so the vision problems could be from them.

Yes RSD can affect the eyes
 
I have read a lot of testimonials from people on here and other places and I also am affected by it. I, just last week saw my eye Doctor who said because of my blurry eyes - "because of your RSD, no glasses will help. There's nothing I can do for you! I, however, looked on the net. I.found that if you get PINHOLE GLASSES it helps blurriness tremdously! I'm right now buying some for $1.65 on Amozon. I really hope this helps even one person! Good luck everyone.:)

I am one of the ones who has it in the eyes. My thread is on here somewhere. My eyes are getting worse, but I hope they'll slow down eventually,

I am so thankful for this post. I have been having vision issues for several years now but never, ever considered it could be connected in any way with my RSD/CRPS. I "see" research in my future today.
