Slow degradation of my vision. Seeing a retina specialist

I have posted before about my eyes. The last few days I am having a weird and scary problem. I see nets, hair and swarming bugs that aren’t there. Today it looked like it was “snowing”in my living room. I don’t see my eye doctor for 3 weeks but she has not been very helpful the last two times I saw her. So I am thinking of changing doctors. Has anyone else experienced this? Thank you. I am so worried.

Hi, Ryman. I have not had cataract surgery. I do occasionally experience floaters after I have my treatment for my retinal vein occlusion. My floaters are temporary and they do appear as dark spots, like bugs.

I found this information about eye floaters that you might like to read. You will see that the things that you describe are explained in the beginning of this article.

I am sorry that you opthamologist is not being very helpful to you. I would think that you could , at the very least, be able to find out if you need to be seen before the 3 week appointment.

Will you send me an update and let me know what you find out from the doctor?

@ryman From your post I think Id call Dr to get in before that I think you,d have a better chance then to start with a new opthamalogist.But if you can't call another and tell of your eye problems.Good luck.Let me know how your doing.
