The eye is a very complex organ. It is often not easy to diagnose the exact causes of sight difficulties. |
I have gone to Opthamologists that do surgery and are heads of the hospitals at some of Dc's largest teaching hospitals. They have no idea what is wrond with the eye at all. There was one doctor that was actually making small talk after I asked after I was told they had "no idea" and she said...."what about diabetes". That is why it is spooky...I don't want to be blind at all. This site seems to have lots of life experiences that are helpful. But wouldn't you think that people who train in medicine and eye specialties would be able to figure out why someone is losing their sight.
