Hi mandapops
Some if whst ur describing is similar to me. I deffinutely see tjings smaller through my worse eye but i dont know if this has always been the case as before i had retinopathy i didnt tend to test my vision one eye at a time. Its the same with low blood sugar. My vision deffinitely changes i get alot of patches that dont seem to be there when im not hypo but again this may have always been the case but im so oaranoid and hyperaware if everything to do with my sight that i may just be noticing it more niw.
I am sorry if it is stories like mine thst have frightened you. I kniw when i was diagnised wirh it i read and read and read some more on here and probably every other website about the condition. Yes it scared the hell out if me but in some eays helped me ask the rught questions when i neefef to.
I ring the eye unit direct when i have a problem and they have always been bery helpful. Express your concerns to them and hopefully they will be able to sort something. I used to feel i was a pain and didnt want to waste their time but as the doctor said when i saw hi " if you are worried get it checked out. If it turns out to be nothing then great but if it needs treatment then we can give it to you sooner rather than later"
The chances are there is nithing to wirry about but toput your mind at rest its best to get it checked. Is your hospital good with care?
I kniw nothing any of us say will take away the fear you are feeling right niw but remember in most cases laser sorts it out. If it doesnt there are many options which i kniw sound really scary but but are availanle of needed. befote my vitrectomy i was petrefied but it wasnt half as bad as i was expecting.
I wish you all the best.
Take care leb
