For the last 8? months, I've had blurry vision. At one point, I don't remember
when, I had that "cloudyness" of my right eye. It appears mostly though when I
wear my glasses...and not my contacts. I haven't set up an appt yet to go see
the dr...I just try not to drive anywhere. I plan on setting the appt up
tomorrow. If the dr doesn't see anything wrong with me, then I guess I'll go see
the neuro. But really, it's less expensive if I go to the eye doc rather than the
neuro. So, my eye doc is my first choice. *Btw, I've always had migranes, and
they have always affected the LEFT side of my eyes, not my right* Last night
though, the blurred vision was so bad that I could barely see period with my
glasses off. (usually I can see pretty okay without my glasses) I'm hoping that
maybe I just need new lenses. but of course, that wouldn't explain the blind spot
that I have sometimes. *shrugs*
