      I've been to a neurologist and a neurological opthemologist and they've discovered I have a condition named CSCR. What has happened is fluid has built up between the back of my eyeball and my retina which has pushed my retina forward inturn distorting my vision. The doctor says its always bilateral and there is evidnece this has already happened in my left eye. Apparently there is enough damage already done to my left eye to where the best I'll ever be able to see out of that eye is 20/80 with corrective lenses.

      The good thing is they think they caught it early enough to where if will have no lasting effects on my right. I go to the retina specialist tomorrow and will no more then. But worst case scenario my right eye will deteriorate to where my left eye is so that's not TOO bad. hopefully they can treat it though.

      I appreciate everyone asking about me. I'll keep you guys posted.

And scally ive been blind in my left ryr since I was 3 had a brain injury at that age . fell off something and hit my head. but you other eye will take over after time and adjust for the bad one.Dont give up and continue to see if they can treat it better.

      They don't know what causes it. It usually happens in males, in their early 30's with either OCD or are a type A personality. I'm a 34 year old dude with OCD. Crazy how it happens.
