In 2007 I was diagnosed with Central Serous Retinopathy. Basically, it is a leakage in the retina caused by who knows what that resolves over time. It has left me with vision that cannot be corrected beyond 20/30 in my right eye.
There has been no change in it for two years, and my vision should be stable in that eye. My ophthalmologist and neurologist insist it has nothing to do with MS, and based on the biology involved I have no reason to doubt them.
Here's the thing--lately when I exert myself more than usual (yardwork, etc.), that eye gets blurrier and light feels much brighter. If I wait a few hours, it goes away. It's not supposed to do that based on the CSR damage, but neither the ophthalmologist nor the neuro have ever seen evidence of optic neuritis during exams.
I will of course bring this up with the eye doc, but I was wondering if there could be an MS connection here or if it is something only my docs could speculate on?
