Losing My Sight!

 It hit me like a steam train! It seems like a lifetime since that day back in August 2023. The specialists continue to investigate into how and why I suffered sudden sight loss due to a Central Retinal Artery Occlusion.

 So far the scans and tests have shown nothing, now waiting for a biopsy. I've been told, vaguely it could be due to my diabetes, cholesterol or even arthritis, all of which I try to keep under control. I do have a very inquisitive nature, so I thought I'd spend a little time researching and digging up some facts.

 I know that we shouldn't search for medical symptoms on Google and specialists have told me "it doesn't do any good" but because my eyesight in my left eye (The good eye) appears to be getting worse, so here's what i've discovered...

 Ocular mucous membrane pemphigoid is a type of scarring conjunctivitis. It affects the membrane that lines the eyelids and covers the white of the eye (the conjunctiva).

 In the UK, around 1 in a million people have ocular mucous membrane pemphigoid. If it’s not treated, it can lead to blindness.

 I live in hope that my vision does not deteriorate further and I can continue to create art for many years to come. 🙏

 Thank you very much for all your continued support and for reading my blog. You can view more from My Website Until the next time! See you soon! 🤗
