Question 1

i have blurred vision only in the corner of my left eye. next steps?

Accepted Answer

Needs evaluation: Loss of vision in one corner is concerning.  First cover each eye to ensure it is from one eye and not say, the left corner of both eyes.  This needs to be evaluated by an eye doctor with at the very least a dilated eye exam to rule out a retinal problem.  Other tests that may need to be done include a peripheral vision test called a visual field test.  If constant or worsening, see someone soon!

Question 2

i suddenly felt dizzy and the vision in my left eye is blurred and i'm seeing moving blurred vision in the corner! dizziness has stopped what can i do?

Accepted Answer

Consult an ophthalmo: You do not have infection but some kind of eye issue.  You need a full eye exam with dilation ASAP.
Good luck

Question 3

i woke up with my eye red in the inner corner of my left eye. i have no pain, no itching, no blurry vision. it's almost as if it's not there. ?

Accepted Answer

Blood vessel: It may must be a ruptured blood vessel. Use some cool compresses and it should resolve. If you get itchiness or pus in it, pain or visual changes see a doctor right away.

Question 4

i woke up today and had blurred vision in left eye. i've experienced this before and it went away in a hour. its all day today. i think i slept on it?

Accepted Answer

Get it evaluated: more fully! It can be part of a syndrome known as Floppy Eye Syndrome that commonly occurs when you're sleeping and part of the eyelid is open enough to cause tear evaporation. (The syndrome also includes sleep apnea and obesity). Don't have your past history to comment further. Sometimes, this can just be from dry eye syndrome period. So, you may benefit from your PCP working this up thoroughly.

Question 5

i have just been diagnosed with toloso hunt i have blurred vision and the left eye is closed and wonky ...will this correct itself?

Accepted Answer

Tolosa Hunt : Yes, with treatment and spontaneously, 
you can also expect relapses.

Question 6

well, yesterday i woke up with blurred vision in my left eye only and there is a dark circle in the centre of my vision in my left eye. what is this?

Accepted Answer

See ophthalmologist: Go to an ophthalmologist immediately. A sudden loss of vision in one eye can have several serious causes. If it is more convenient, go to an emergency room.

Question 7

when i wake up, i have double/blurred vision in left eye. do i need an mri?

Accepted Answer

Eye exam: First you need a complete eye exam from an eye doctor (ophthalmologist). There are many possible reasons for double and blurry vision which cannot be diagnosed without a thorough exam. An MRI may be useful if the doctor has specific concerns about your brain, optic nerve, or the orbit. But this would be a secondary exam, not the first choice.

Question 8

yes i was in a car accident and hit my head now mainly my left eye is blurred vision.?

Accepted Answer

Seek med attention: This could represent a serious injury to the brain or the orbit.  I would urge you to seek immediate medical attention.

Question 9

i had a head injury over 2 years ago causing blurred vision in my left eye. my vsi is 20/200. can this be corrected?

Accepted Answer

Cannot tell: It is impossible to say without further information whether the vision can be improved with glasses or surgery.  If there is a traumatic cataract that is potentially treatable with surgery.  If there is optic nerve or retinal damage, the vision will not be correctable with glasses.

Question 10

excessive crying last night, and as a result my eyes were v. heavy. have now noticed my left eye has slight blurred vision, also when right is closed?

Accepted Answer

Temporary: Your vision will recover from the crying.  Crying removes the mucous from the surface of the eye making it dry.  This blurs the vision.  The mucous layer will recover in a day or so.
