What Causes Floaters In The Field Of Vision?
Question: Mid-2013, I noticed when I'd lie face down on my bed, I'd see a pinpoint floater with my right eye.
Began to notice I'd have to wear glasses, remove them, and put them back on to play computer internet spades.
2015, I could not read close up without glasses. In 2016 when I was told I needed a cat scan (another issue), I suddenly noticed the ability of my left eye vision "go bad". I can pinpoint exactly when!
Today, my far vision in my left eye is starting to slow-ly fuck up. Cannot read for SHIT without my glasses, ESPECIALLY WHEN I FIRST WAKE UP! As the day progresses into night, my vision can see better, but... After sitting in front of computer, when I take my glasses off, I have trouble reading far off, not just close up. Bright day sunlight exacerbates my vision, and so do bright car headlights.
I had 20 / 20 left eye and 20 / 10 right eye all my life.
What the hell is happening? I will kill myself if I lose my vision, and wearing glasses and looking OLD is BULLSHIT! Doctor tells me LASIK would be USELESS. HELP! Are stem cells therapy able to give me back my old eyesight?
