If you think you’re going blind in one eye….Okay, maybe a bit
dramatic, but you think your vision is rapidly decreasing in one eye,
meaning, nothing was blurry the previous week, but is blurry now (with
and without contacts)…
Do you see an optometrist or an Opthamologist?
HELP!

that’s scary. you should check that out. i think you can go to either. dr. debbie?!
Janet, you’ve had that problem before and I remember your eyes getting really red. Schedule an appt today. See you tonight.
i dunno…you and “your” football tickets might make that a tough decision for me…
opthalmologist (he/she is an MD)
but if its really serious, i say go to the one who can see you RIGHT NOW (most likely the optometrist)
optho…some hospitals have them in house, so maybe you can go to the ER if it’s really bad.
first of all, it’s “optometrist”… and secondly, go see a shrink instead =)
Scary…!
lol i was going to suggest what min said too
hahha.. love what kate said.. i was gonna say the same thing.. and i think with usc insurance, you’ll need to go to family practice first, then get a referral for a opthamology specialist.. =)
i’d say opthalmologist too.
umm…anyone! asap! you’re so calm about things janet…you know i’d be in urgent care within an emergency room within the world’s biggest hospital by now. yes…drama queen here.
janet.. you should have called me! go see an optometrist.. you prolly have an infection !
optometrist will give you antibiotics..
update me.. and get better ok?
Go see an optometrist ASAP and they should fit you in same day if you think it’s emergency, and if it’s something they cant handle they’ll refer you to an opthalmologist. Optometrist can diagnose many medical problems in the eye which include infections, retinal detachments, glaucoma, cataracts, diabetic symptoms in eye, etc. They learn a lot more medical stuff than ppl know.
get it checked have ya? hope everything’s okay! see ya suunnnddaaaayyyy.. yayyaya
at least you still have one good eye.. no?? hope both your eyes are and nice and healthy!!!
