reno Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Seems lately, the white area in both my eyes have been slightly red. I can see the blood vessel pretty visible, but the redness surrounding it usually clears up within a day. This has been re occurring for several weeks now, and I am not exactly sure why this is happening. Just the other day I was laying down for a while, got up suddenly, vision goes dark for few seconds, feel the blood flow from my head to feet, went to go check the mirror and my right eye was red again. *the dizziness and vision going dark has been going on for several years* I know if you have high blood pressure or diabetes, this can occur, but dunno. Has anyone had this happen before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse The Body Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Go to the docs ASAP! Vision is important the sooner you go to the docs to help the better! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted September 7, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 That doesn't occur normally if you have diabetes. Don't believe everything you read. But high blood pressure, yes. That can happen. I have pre-hypertension, blood pressure runs a bit high sometimes, probably from all the salt I eat (in other words, all the food I eat) and from low potassium. Ever see small silver stars, or slivers of things in your vision? The blood rushing from your head to your feet...if you feel that, it's the blood pushing up against your artery walls. That pressure? It's blood pressure...measured by the force your blood presses up against the walls of your arteries. The higher the pressure, the weaker you feel...along with being dizzy sometimes, or feeling pain in your legs, headaches, etc. Go to a regular doctor first. If he doesn't find it to be your blood pressure, or you aren't anemic, go straight to an eye doctor. Temporary vision loss, for that long, is a bit odd...so I'm willing to bet it has more to do with your body and your blood pressure, and not your retina or blood vessels in your eyes.

Doc Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Man, bleeding eyes freak me out so much. No offense to anyone, but it just weirds me out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldChili Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 I'd take Real's advice. Hope everything works out for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
