Thank you for your reply. I do not have cataracts, but I have had migraines, not a lot and not often. For a while I had ice pick headaches above my left eye, which is the eye that is more blurry and gets more bloodshot now. Is there anything that helps or triggers your blurry vision?

@Ini888 I wonder if the ice pick headaches on the same side as the blurry eye, could be a clue. I get blurry vision with migraines but that is episodic and it sounds like yours is more constant. Cataracts are an issue for me, but not you apparently.

Did the prednisone affect the blurriness? If so, could the biopsy have missed it because the prednisone had reduced inflammation?

You seem to have all the right doctors who are being quite thorough. Neurology and vascular neurology are both a good call. Not clear on what rheumatology found: is your ANA positive or was it sed rate or CRP that was positive?

There are all kinds of (brain-based and neck) connections between auditory, visual, facial, eye nerves that aren't fully understood. I am trying to get to the bottom of a painful connection between hearing/loud noise and facial nerve pain and numbness
I am not making progress. I do have a lupus diagnosis but that is not helping! I hope you have better luck!!
