That sucks sorry youre going through it

potd is getting hecking old

Funny thing is I'm still 29 years old.

Also, somewhat good news(?)

I had to be seen by like three different specialists and they concluded that's it's not glaucoma but something called Posner-Schlossman Syndrome.

Which is basically glaucoma-lite. It's not caused by deformation of the drainage system, but an overreaction to some sort of inflammation in the eye, apparently (or any number of other reasons they said. It's sort of the default "kinda glaucoma but not" diagnosis).

It'll still result in increased pressure like glaucoma but it's not chronic and basically can occur randomly. Which kinda tracks since the last attack I had was over 5 years ago.

So yeah, looks like my eye IS an asshole that can just randomly decide to fuck around in my skull.

But hey, they kinda mentioned off-hand that my case was "interesting" and could be used to teach new students so I have that going for me.
