Sudden Eye Problems: Could it be High Pressure or IIH?

My eye sight has gotten significantly worse in the past 1 or 2 months, out of nowhere. I am having blurriness, eye pain, and some colored spots occasionally. Does this sound like it could be a sign that my pressure is high? I’m scared it’s from the IIH…

It can be the pressure. Please get it checked out before it causes blindness.

Could be! Mine is flared up right now due to the weather changing. Any updates on how you're feeling?

I’ve had similar symptoms for 6 years. I haven’t went to the dr. I’m terrified it’s a brain tumor. 😔 all symptoms of IIH. makes me feel so spacey and out of my body. It sucks. I’ve kind of gotten used to it but I know I shouldn’t. 😔🥺

My first transplant in 2003 my eyesight was very good before the transplant and then after I think it was about 6 months I noticed I couldn't read anything up close. I talk to my Dr about it and if you are taking Prednisone it cause cataracts. Your insurance will pay for you to get your eyes fixed. I hope this helps some..
