Question:

Sir,

I have blood clot in red eye, my BP, Sugar level are normal and cholostrol is little bit above boarder line. Doctors saying that they can give an injuction to vapour this blood from the eye but they cannot cure this and eye vision may lost in future. Blood is coming on retina too. presently i cannot read anything correcly with the right vision.

Could you advice me on this what to do on this?

Thanks.

Answer:

I’m sorry to hear about your condition. Controlling your borderline cholesterol may be the best advice for the moment. Keep all your follow-up appointments with your eye care specialist, and be patient during the healing process.

If you do end up with loss to the central vision, book yourself into a low vision clinic. In a low vision clinic, the doctors will teach you how to use various techniques and equipment to maximize your vision.

Best of luck to you.
