***UPDATE**
Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers for me today. Please excuse any typos as they dilated my eyes and I am still having issues reading small type. So I may say something crazy like I did when I texted my DH while my eyes were being dilated. I was trying to tell him they my eyes were dilating and instead, my typo was auto corrected to say they were roasting! LOL
ANYWAY, they ran a thousand tests as well as an ultrasound. Everything is good. The zigzags are ocular migraines. I do need to get readers, but they have to be made because each eye is different, so I can't just go grab a pair off the rack. I will do that once I can see clearly again. I don't want to pick out something super ugly. LOL
He did say he wanted me to try the readers at night while driving as well as in the movie theater just to see if I might be able to see clearer. I didn't think I had an issue in dark situations , but I will test them out and see what happens.
So, all in all, everything is good, other than my "White coat blood pressure" reading while I was there. 165/88! Crazy! I will take it again after I rest up and hope that's all it was.
Thank you all again. I really appreciate it!
*END UPDATE*
I have an eye Dr. appointment tomorrow. I have had 4 instances of seeing rainbow zigzags in what seems to be in my left eye, but can be seen when I cover each eye separately as well.
I have been told that it could be an ocular migraine (No pain associated with it when it happens), but my GP said she is a little concerned that it could be that my retina is separating and may need to be tacked back down.
So, my results COULD be the tacking down, possible glasses when on the computer, or something completely different. I have NO idea what to expect, so please say a little prayer for peace for me as well as a good, easily fixable diagnosis.
Thanks!
