Hi,
I was diagnosed a while ago - although doc says I could have had this for a while. Occasionally id have blurred vision which I was told means sugars too high - once under control vision returned to normal.
Then a few weeks ago i noticied when i was looking up at the sky I had floaters and the spiders web thing. I immeditaely made an appointment with Specsavers - they did all of the tests - 3d pics and also the dilated pupil test. She assured me that she couldnt see anything and its something to do with the vitrous gel in the eye (ive done a fair bit of research)
..although Specsavers arent linked to the NHS database she has assured me that the test they do is exactly the same as a NHS linked optician. I have another apoointment anyway for a NHS linked optician next week.
Thing is this seems all too much of a coincidence as I have type 2 and Im really worried...
Has anyone been through the same thing?
Thanks
Paul
