I am having problems with my vision. I went to an eye Duck and everything seems fine.

Symptoms
Blurry Vision
I feel like I have oil goo over my eyes

If I look at bright lights or a white screen I see floaters or stringy things moving

if i look at something bright and then look away I see the objects halo if that makes senes

Sometimes I will have flashing lights in vision
Or I will almost see like a sparkle in my vision.

Ugh is this normal. I am so worried

^ I had very similar symptoms before treatment

Lyme treatment helped this go away.

I also felt like I had a film over my eyes too. and bright lights hurt my eyes and always made me see little speckf of floaters. I was even getting little flashes of light

All of that has gone away since lyme treatment.

I had this a few months after I was infected but I wasn't treating yet. It went away on its own in about a week or so. It came back about a month ago for a day and then went away on its own again.

In addition to Lyme etc, I know that stress causes increased floaters.

I am dealing with the exact same issues at this moment have seen 3 eye docs all of which tell me my eyes are fine. However they seem to be getting worse.

On top of that i have visual snow as well as closed eye hallucinations.

By far my worst symptom at this moment.

These are typical Lyme eye symptoms. We have a couple threads about mangosteen juice - I suggest you do a search for them.

I have been able to stop all Lyme eye symptoms by drinking this juice. There are lots of brands in healthfood stores and online. I like the Ultra one made by Trace Minerals, also Mango-Xan.

It can be powerful, so go slow with it and drink water. I now drink a 1/2 ounce in the am and pm. It can also regularize intestines, empty sinuses, and stop gums from bleeding.

It's a strong anti-inflammatory antioxidant juice and it cleans up free radicals produced by all the inflammation. The Lyme spirochetes love to hang out in the eye. Let's "see" if mangosteen juice will work for any of you!
