Default Eye Doctor
Hi

I have Parkinsons Disease which has nothing to do with your symptoms.

However last week i had a very thourough eye exam. Im very near sited though after my exam which included dialating my eyes. He noticed a lot of floaters in my eyes and the beginning of cateracts. My eye doc said that if i experienced Bright flashes, stars and floaters that i need to get in right away and get it looked at. It could mean that my retina was detached and that i need to get to the doctors as soon as possible so that it could be taken care of.

I hope this helps

Stacey

floaters are actual things inside of your eye that can be seen by your ophthalmologist. I have them, but they are unrelated to my injury.
