What Causes Tinnitus And Distortion In The Peripheral Vision?

i have been experiencing a shimmering zig zag crescent in the outside peripheral vision; mainly in my right eye which will last several minutes and an occasional loss of hearing in my right ear associated with a loud ringing; this will generally last several seconds and then clears. these are not necessarily associated with a headache.

Hello,

There is no treatment for tinnitus. You have to accept it as part of life. Exclude glaucoma take the regular IoT. It can be confirmed by gonioscopy and slit lamp examination. The angle can be specifically examined water drinking test dark room test can be done. Middle ear examination and cochlea and medulla can be examined exclude obstructive or nerve deafness. If using full hearing aid can be used. Rotation test can be done.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
