Hi all. 5 days ago I woke up with pain in my eye, and felt like electricity in my vision when looking left to right and up and down. I thought it would go away on its own. I went to a ophthalmologist he checked my eyes and said the exam is normal and my vision disturbance is coming from lack oxygen. He said he didn’t know the cause. It was driving me insane that the lower left part of my vision in my left eye felt gone. I went to a big hospital they did a complete work up on me. They first suspected optic neuritis. But after an mri and the optic nerve not being swollen on the back side they ruled out, MS as well and I was diagnosed with NAION and given discharge papers. After reading all these threads I am not alone. I am a 41 year old male in good health. The way I can explain it is my eye had a “stroke” and the end results are permanent with no treatment. Very nerve racking and a hard pill to swallow. Does anyone have any help on how or what to take to save my other eye from this happening? I really need the support and thank you in advance.
