This structure is in the right eye, but not in the left. This is from yesterday. Notice the seeming circle around it? That should be the macula. What is that dark star shape sitting on what looks like a circular circuit board with little transistors? That may be the fovia, but why is it so different in the left and right eyes?
This above is the left eye fovia for comparison. This one also has a circular area, looks like connectors to it. All of this might be just the mind reading into the visual artifacts. Higher resolution images would help.
This looks unnatrual to me, but I’m not a doctor. What is it? Here are some images from a few days before with a different machine:
My vision has been pretty good most of my life, but it sucks now. My left eye has a crap load of floaters and I can see my eye veins almost all of the time. I have to always look through the vein shadows at everything now. it’s annoying as hell.
Today, 9/17/2024, an opthamologist (MD) said he’s never seen Lyme in an eye and they don’t see it here. On the East coast, yes. He said with Lyme you’d likely see optic neuritis, and uvitis but my eyes don’t have that. This last two doctors one Kaiser, one not, said my eyes show no signs of inflammation, edema, or pallor (damage).
As to the mysterious clump of blood cells in my eye three years ago, my main eye doctor said today that lyme disease was unlikely to cause that, it was a vascular hemhorrage that has since healed. As to my seeing afterimages of whatever is in my fovias constantly, he said that the hemhorrage may have left some permanent damage, that was possible.
He confirmed that the vitrious humor pulling away from the retina is what causes floater and they always occur in the back of the eye. He said they never get better or go away, the floaters. Another eye doctor said lasers can break them up into smaller bits, but it risky and the outcomes are not great. There is supposedly a supplement that actually worked in double blind placebo controlled study to reduce the experience of floaters. I need to do a deep dive on that. Floater article coming up, if I can stand looking at the screen long enough.
