My vision is getting bad, not blurry but just little dots all over the place block what im trying to see.?

Question

Vision has tiny spots (not big) and getting more and more frequent. my vision is still sharp but everything is just fading away.

It has been happening for the past 1-2 years but is just now really starting to get bad. When i look into a dark room I see mostly what I am supposed to see (darkness) but a large majority of my vision is taken over by a somewhat uniform (covers everywhere so I know its not floaters) series of white dots. Its starting to get where my stomach hurts since I stare at an object attempting to gather the missing information. I can still read but the letters are broken up.

Floater: A blurry spot that seems to drift in front of the eyes but does not block vision. The blur is the result of debris from the vitreous of the eye casting a shadow on the retina. The spot is the image formed by a deposit of protein drifting about in the vitreous, the clear jelly-like substance that fills the middle of the eye.

Floaters are often described by patients as spots, strands, or little flies.

Floaters are usually benign (not serious). They can, however, occasionally result from a separation of the vitreous gel from the retina. This condition is called a posterior vitreous detachment (PVD). Although a PVD occurs commonly, there are no retinal tears associated with the condition most of the time.

No treatments are available for floaters although they tend to become less annoying over time. Remember also that floaters are usually not associated with serious eye problems.

Permanent or recurring white or black spots in the same area of your field of vision may, however, be an early warning sign of cataracts or another serious eye problem. If you experience a shadow or curtain that affects any part of your vision, this can indicate that a retinal tear has occurred and has progressed to a detached retina. In this situation, you should immediately consult an ophthalmologist since time is of the essence.

Have your thyroid checked because it could be early signs of graves disease. Graves Disease is the only kind of hyperthyroidism that is associated with swelling of the tissue around the eyes and eventually bulging of the eyes. The symptoms of this disease can occur slowly or very suddenly and are sometimes confused with other medical problems. Women can also have Graves Disease and have no visible symptoms at all. My mother has it and the earlier it is caught the easier it is to correct. Chances are you do not have it because it only affects about 2% of women but checking for it is wise since the test only requires a simple blood test.

Answer 5

You need to see an optamolagist and yes you are having real vision problems that could be caused by many many things.

Answer 6

i seriously hope you have visited an optician for an eye test. if not do so right away. your eyes are to precious to ignore symptoms like this it sounds to me that you could have something called glaucoma which if caught early enough can be stopped for progressing any further . you may need eye drops/pills or even an operation.

Answer 7

Sounds like floaters, but better have it checked out.

Answer 8

Sounds as if you are experiencing something called a floater.
These, from what I read, are thingies in your vision that you accumulate as you age.
