MY MOM IS GOING BLIND. HELP!!! by saintruky(m): 11:22am On Dec 09, 2016 |
Greeting to all and compliments of the season. I have a 68 year old mother who has glaucoma. Optometrist we met for diagnosis authenticated that yes she has the disease. Last medical check we did at a different clinic yesterday being 8th December 2016, showed that the pressure rate of her left eye was 44 and RE was 45, which happens to be way above normal. Blood pressure reading was 110/70, sugar level was 106. The Optometrist with no form of sympathy in his mouth/speech, plainly and clearly told my mom she would go blind, and those words made my old mom burst into and uncontrollable tears, she cried bitterly. I had to console her, watching as the tears flowed from my old mother's eyes broke me down completely, but had to hold up my own tears. The Optometrist was entirely rude to us, refusing to answer our questions. I'm here on bended knees pleading with expert Ophthalmologist and Optometrist in the treatment of eyes, to please give a viable recommendation in line with her above diagnosis, to help save her remaining vision? She currently uses Bimopress eye drops and Optic nerve tablets. I on my part have eye floaters. Can any medication be use to take off the floaters? Do have a great day while I kindly await your matured and all important contributions, recommendations and possible referrals. Nairaland, always a family to behold. A MOTHER'S LOVE KNOWS NO BOUND!! CC; mynd44, seun, lalastica, tonyebarcanista, kmaxx, amongst other mods, please kindly move to FP. Thanks 1 Like |

OP Firstly, I cancel every negative report from your medic on your health and that of your sweet Momma. Both of you SHALL not go blind. As for solution, I suggest that you consider traditional option or extensively read through Google. On my part, I will try to see materials that can be helpful 2 Likes |

agabaI23:I didn't ask him to donate some money in the name of tithe or seed for God to heal him. I said it because GOD is everywhere. the gods of men should go and sit down! Nothing special in their camps |
Re: MY MOM IS GOING BLIND. HELP!!! by agabaI23(m): 12:13pm On Dec 09, 2016 |
TonyeBarcanista:No body will ask him to donate to be healed. Healing is free. But even Jesus expected the remaining 9 lepers to come back to say thank you. Were there not 10 of you healed? Where are the remaining 9? |
Re: MY MOM IS GOING BLIND. HELP!!! by TonyeBarcanista(m): 12:20pm On Dec 09, 2016 |
agabaI23:Uncle stop promoting fraud. Are the god of men the people that heals? NO! Healing comes from GOD Are they Jesus? NO! they are mere mortals that people like you deify Do they need "Thank You" (literally money for seeds and stuffs)? NO! That is not their business. Giving to God as prescribed by Jesus is about sharing with the brethren and fellow men and not necessarily the god of men. God is everywhere and he has healed him and his mother!

Re: MY MOM IS GOING BLIND. HELP!!! by agabaI23(m): 12:37pm On Dec 09, 2016 |
TonyeBarcanista:Lol, my son I don't deify anyone. If the old testament is still part of the bible, it says that there shall be no lack in the temple. The faithful shall make sure it doesn't happen. You agreed that Jesus expected a thank you? How do you expect us to thank him now like he expected the 9 lepers? Do you mean he was not everywhere then? Was that why he asked expected them to come physically to to him to say thank you? Couldn't they have said thank you from where they were? |

Re: MY MOM IS GOING BLIND. HELP!!! by saintruky(m): 12:54pm On Dec 09, 2016 |
TonyeBarcanista: Thanks boss. I've been troubling google since last night till this very moment. Useful tips came as to operations, but the cost of carrying out such operation in Naija might result to breaking the bank. Laser surgery and trabeculectomy surgery were the forms of operation provided with reference to glaucoma. I have no idea if there are institutions in Naija that perform the laser surgery and the cost of the surgery. As per the option of going traditional, I have never come across or heard of someone who use tradomed to treat his or her glaucoma. Moreover, patients have been advised by doctors to shun of forms of traditional medicine as regards eye treatment. I am entirely confused. |

Elmojiid: Yes se cannot go blind and wont go blind. The Optometrist we met yesterday at Ossiomo-Ogan, said glaucoma cannot be operated. With you stating that yours was operated and my google findings that its possible to operate glaucoma, though not to cure it, but to help manage it and save remaining vision. Permit me to ask where you had yours operated and the medications you are using. Mind you cataract is sometimes mistaken for glaucoma. God bless you for this wonderful insight.
