Cornea Specialist 13th May

[Vigilante]

hello all,

Havent posted in a long time, I have been under Mr Pawson at Warwick Hospital after being diagnosed as having mild KC of my left eye although the corneal thickness is around 400 microns....without any form of laser treatments. I have been trying RGP lens but although it reduces the multiple vision I get it does not take it away and makes me see it more on everything due to it being more in focus. Last consultation we talked about the possibility of me having posterior KC because of the corneal thickness not matching the corneal cone.

I have now been referred on to bmec - Birmingham and Midlands Eye Centre to see the corneal plastic surgeon on 13th May.

Since this progression of my left eye back around September/October 2012 I have had had constant headaches too across my eyebrow/forehead area and also within my eyes, like if I touch them through my eyelids they ache at the back. I cannot read street signs with my left eye the multiple visions really are that bad. If I look at the moon its just a circle of blurred moons like a giant halo of them.

The headaches have had me worried sick to be honest, but my GPs keep putting it down to tension type headaches, is it possible that the KC really is the cause of this?

Hope to god that something goes right for me on the 13th even if that means a corneal transplant....I would do anything right now to feel different.

Was the cause of your headache caused by the KC progression?

I've never suffered from headaches or migraines in my life apart from when I was a child and to try to correct my left lazy eye my optom put a patch on my right eye.

In February I woke up, had my breakfast and then had to lie down as I had the most horrendous headache, a couple of paracetomols never touched it so I went straight to A&E at my local hospital. I requested an MRI scan ad they kept me in overnight.They could find nothing wrong and gave me medication to subdue the pain.

The KC in my right eye has progressed further over the last couple of years but not in my left eye to such a level that the vision in my right eye is now a blur..

My opinion in answer to your question is yes. From a common sense POV a vast imbalance of vision between eyes must cause a problem for the brain when it has functioned with unblurred reasonably balanced bilateral vision for a long period of time.

i have actually had this many times, and the light brings bad headaches or migraines, and sometimes ive puked because of them.

the normal eye doctor transferred me to a Neurologist/Neuro-ophthalmolist which specialized in eye related problems did visual eeg and other stuff. The above line

was mentioned the sensitively of eye against the light

So I would be against if you can see a Neurologist/Neuro-ophthalmolist, also done MRi scan where the pumped me tire,
