Sudden inability to focus, dizziness, double vision: Is it a stroke?

No infection. It is usually vascular , seeing a cardiologist right now . running a lot of test. Narrowing of the arteries in the neck possibly. They could see the plaque running thru a small vein in my eye in photos. Luckily it started going down before it reached my brain. Not out of the woods yet since this just happened in April. Took forever to get referrals .

Wow. I recently had a carotid ultrasound and I only had minor narrowing but now that I think about it, it was probably 3-4 years ago when I got diagnosed with Ortho static hypotension I fully believe this is related to a infectious cause because it all began then. How are you now? Feeling I mean in this context?

Just the symptoms I mentioned. But I already had myopic degenerative disease in this eye so vision wasn’t that great and the eye wasn’t that strong. Now I have very limited vision because of this stroke. But when this happened the morning as I was on my phone I had a dreadful feeling come over my body before I lost total vision in the eye. It was dark for several days. Over the past two months there is light but very grainy vision. Drs. Say I am lucky because people usually lose all their vision permanently.
