Sorry to hear that mate.

Is your bp sorted though?

High/low bp normally needs treatment

Prob not the kind of news you want to hear mate but my mum had one of these and lost the sight completely in one of her eyes

Cant remember exactly what happened but the clot went as far as the back of her eye and caused irrepairable damage.

Docs said even if she had got straight to hosp when it happened there was probably nothing they could have done to save the sight in that eye.


Bloody nightmare anything to do with the eyes.


Good luck though and hope everything turns out ok for you.
