My number one bet is on glaucoma the silent thief of sight. Many persons are unaware they are at the brink of blindness; even some persons that may have commented on the post. Please go have your eyes checked especially if there's any family member or relative that suffered blindness. Early detection of these potentially blinding diseases is key. It's painful seeing young people go blind and there's no medical help that can be offered at that point and you wish they had presented earlier. Please even if you feel your eyes are healthy, go for an eye check and do no assume things. Also make it a thing of practice to compare vision between the two eye to know if vision in one eye is significantly different from the other eye

I'm a type 1 diabetic. The financial requirements is too much. The battle no be here o. 13 years of diabetes has affected all areas of my life
Oh sorry to hear that , type 1 is not easy to manage cos one has to live on insulin …
I understand how the financial challenges is going to be for you in Nigeria but in USA insulin prices are like you buying your normal bottle water especially with health insurance
Re: Nollywood Actress, Maureen Okpoko Goes Blind. by DisLifeSha: 9:31pm On Feb 14, 2023
I wish the Nigerian government would subsidize the price of the insulin (humulin 70/30 100iu). I started buying this drug for 3000
naira in 2012. I buy this same drug for 8800 naira now.

“God give her sight.” Is it not God who took it to begin with? Why will He bring it back?

It can be terrible. A senior fellow went to do free eye surgery in one of this eye foundation to correct a defect. They operate on the two eyes, unfortunately, bro could not see after the operation.

Plant Stem Cell Therapy will HEAL both Cataract and Glaucoma Completely.

She would be on the therapy for 6 Months but she would see great improvement that will lead to her HEALING.

But the thing with all these celebrities is "My Doctor say....My Doctor say". Doctor wey no fit cure them yet will collect millions of naira from them and they will still go blind in the end.

Atleast, Plant Stem Cell Therapy works and heals both Glaucoma and Cataract, that is my joy.

Exactly what came into my mind after reading the headline
Nigerians don’t have access to proper healthcare
It’s so pathetic
She might be diabetic and unknown it not properly controlled
Doctor who.....no be only diabetic dey cause loss of sight
Re: Nollywood Actress, Maureen Okpoko Goes Blind. by davidkingsley59(m): 9:31am On Feb 15, 2023
Blindness, even cataract challenge, is not something anyone should experience. It's devastating. May God give her the strength to pass this depressing stage of her life. Prayers and medical support might help, but love from everyone around her means a lot.
Re: Nollywood Actress, Maureen Okpoko Goes Blind. by DisLifeSha: 10:11am On Feb 15, 2023
I know several people who have died due to diabetes. The first thing is understanding it and second is money to take care of yourself very well. E no easy o

This blindness thing is painful,especially when it happens to a loved one.i know cos my mum is blind.
Can you share her story?
How did she go blind? What caused it?

Most times, it is from glycouma.
Many people have it but we hardly do yearly medical check up in this part of the world and when things happen, we claim it is attack.
Have seen many people around me go blind due to not knowing they have glaucoma in time.

This is the last one i did last month
You did this? You did an eye test on someone or what?
