That's neither cataract nor glaucoma.

That is a corneal infiltrate/Corneal ulcer as a result of Keratitis, and yes it is potentially blinding if not managed urgently and it extends to cover your pupil.

It is an emergency, you should see an eye specialist as soon as possible.

Is there any discharge? What is the name of the eye drop you used? A steroid?

You're a doctor ba?
I just tire for those shouting cataract and glaucoma upandan.
Cloudy vision must always be cataract in some people's minds.

It's more likely a Corneal Ulcer, as a possible result of an infection and/or injury to the eye.

What is the name of the medication the doctor gave to you?

You'll need to see an Optometrist as soon as you can. Such is usually a serious condition and can lead to blindness if not properly managed.

Sounds to me like blepharitis with a developing corneal ulcer, May also be secondary to corneal ulceration.

I'm having a blurred vision! It all started last week thursday when i started having a feeling of a foreign object like sand on my eyes which i didn't took serious thinking it would get away after some time. On The next day which was friday, the feeling disappeared untill saturday morning when i woked up with the same uncomfortable feelings in my eyes but this time with nonstop tears rushing down from my eyes. I met a doctor the next day, sunday who gave me an eye drop and some drugs which i was taking but i started having blurred vision the next day.. So on Tuesday when I was looking at the eye on my mirror i noticed a grey or let me say a milky colored round dot covering some part of the the round black part of my eye(iris) .. I don't know what exactly is that gray thing on my eyes I'm bleeping afraid of completely losing my vision.. Any help on how to get rid of that?! exactly as of the image below

This is not Cataract ooo Neither is it Glaucoma. The latter is not seen by mere eyes.
All the same, go to a good ophthalmologist. This is an emergency!

Yeah... I think the foreign body that entered his eye scratched the cornea or inadvertently while trying to remove it, and the eye drop he was given exacerbated it or it got infected outright!

@thenoisemaker should see a doctor first thing tomorrow morning or today if possible

to me the only thing I believe is prayer. My church witnessed a man and was heal of partly blindness. This one no be them say them say. He ran into church in my present and crashed on benches and chairs on the church. My apostle prayed for him. The man is in the US now enjoying life. Seek a genuine man of God. You have nothing to lose. God help you

I don't get. Op, who are you supposed to go to first when feeling discomfort in your eyes? Nairaland or an optician?

You just typed what I was about typing. The eye is a very sensitive sense organ and this OP is just playing with his eyesight.

I don't think the eye issue is actually affecting him because if it is, he won't even think of typing this long story here. The opthalmologist/optician should have been his first point of call not nairaland.

OP I beg you in the name of God, run to see the medical experts immediately without delay. Nairalanders will only put fear into you with their funny diagnosis.
Re: I'm Losing my eye Vision .. Eye Medical Professionals Help! by Awoo88: 4:26pm On Sep 09, 2018
That is cataract and only surgery can heal it. It is a fairly simply procedure. If you are in abuja, visit Asokoro general hospital of national hospital.

He can still see but will be losing peripheral visions. He will be experiencing floaters and have that feeling of tightness. He will go blind completely if the op do not undergo surgery.

Pls see an ophthalmologist today. don't see an optician o.some optician will tell u they can treat it it's a lie.i almost lost my sight some months ago. I had Conjunctivitis after my child brought it home and infected all the family.i got it last and mine was acute. i cldnt see.referred to an optician who was treating me until I had blurred vision and I went back to the clinic then was refered to an ophthalmologist who is also a professor. she gave some drugs and told me if I had delayed I would ve lost my sight.
thank God my sight is back.
bro, Pls don't delay a bit.see a specialist.

Similar to mine. My case was that I was diagnosed with allergic conjunctivitis. My eyes allergic to something but now I have figured the thing.... Sleeping with cloth using it covering my face at night caused it and also swimming rarely. My symptoms when it start is tears in my eyes, severe running nose and cataarh and I feel like I can't breath or struggling to breath . I feel like an object in my eye but there is none and my eye turn red fast. When I applied water it worsen it that my eye turn blur. It happen to only one eye.

Had to rush to the teaching hospital were doc told that it's allergic conjunctivitis for my eye to be dripping and catarrh and running nose . He gave me paracetamol and one eye drop for allergies. Within 12 hrs, my eye all clear and blur vision disappeared and running nose stop with aid of panadol or paracetamol.

It happen again 3 times in a year, so I now discover that when I sleep with clothes or rapper using it to cover my face, I will get it. I have ask my brother if I open my eyes in night but he said I open it little bit.

Op should see a specialist.

I don't really think he'll need surgery. He should just go to the hospital for physical examination by the relevant health professionals.

Delaying to see the opthalmologist since last Thursday when the incident happened may have complicated it and I'm sure vigorous scratching of the eye in addition to the side effect of the eye drop used would have complicated his eye problem.

You need to see an ophthalmologist and endocrinologist asap. It could be complications from poor management of diabetes and hypertension. This usually leads to glaucoma, cataract, etc.
Re: I'm Losing my eye Vision .. Eye Medical Professionals Help! by Ajiowe: 4:45pm On Sep 09, 2018

It's either glaucoma, or cataract.

It can't be managed if you follow the doctor's prescription.

If worse,it can be operated upon.


Glaucoma doesn't just develop like that. 90% case of glaucoma are usually hereditary. And even if he were to develop it, it doesn't come with this amount of force. It is called the silent but deadly cause of blindness.
I don't think it's cataract either. He said the blur in vision started after he used the eyedrop prescribed by somebody. Probably the eyes were reacting to the drops cause its not meant for his own symptoms exactly.
So, dear, OP, I'll advise you see a primary eye care giver (an Optometrist) for eye screening so the right steps can be taken. The earlier the better cause human sight is very expensive.
bless you

Ur developing an eye problem which will likely be fixed if u see an opthamologist.
Nothing to be worried about.

looks like corneal ulcer or corneal scarring.
maybe the foreign object that went into your eye scratched the cornea and the aftermath of the wound is the scar you see there.
have a similar issue. optician said it will go with time, this is over six months my vision is not yet clear or is operation the only option.
