Family member's friend and coworker was vaxxed early as a frontline worker. Dec 2020?
They now have optic nerve inflammation and may be unable to work.
Seems to me I read something about vax affecting vision/eyes, but cannot seem to find post or article.
Any be would be appreciated.
Well mewzilla - you are quick with references. Indeed the reaction can be a side effect. The untested garbage injected into millions of people has ‘legion’ of potential side effects. Stay pureblooded!
I can’t find a reason not to believe that this virus is artificially created or genetically manipulated.
I have gotten them for yrs. Mine last around 10 min. or less. I close that eye until it goes away.
Yes, and keep in mind the data is about four months old. Attkisson provides updates on new developments in the vaccine safety issue.
Go to an ophthalmologist. ASAP.
Unfortunately at our age vision problems begin to occur.
My mother got macular degeneration.
There are treatments that help eye disease, earlier the better.
Hmmm....
I’ll look into this
Never heard of it but, some days I can’t drive if the sun in a particular place, even with polarized sun glasses

Read this. Here is the optimistic take home.
“Most people who have a single episode of optic neuritis eventually recover their vision without treatment. Sometimes steroid medications may speed the recovery of vision after optic neuritis.”
But that’s assuming optic nerve inflammation is the problem.
Did your friend go to an opthamologist?
Thank you, kind of you to post the article.
“That is just horrible.
I did not know about this adverse effect”
Most of the adverse effects were not known, weren’t advertised, and anyone suggesting these vaxxes may not be safe were labeled flat earth Trump supporters.
Unfortunately people are learning first hand that the skepticism may not be unfounded.
According to my Doctor, damage done.
The co-worker did go...said the doc. had not seen this before I am thinking in terms of the jab...
My Doctor said damage done, said I could keep it from getting worse by further lowering my blood sugar to the normal healthy range for non-diabetics, done...fingers crossed.
Thank you.
Yes went to ophthalmologist...
Well, I hope not. Maybe new therapies emerging.
I have had ocular issues, and found a great group of specialists—glaucoma specialist, “eyelid” specialist, plus my regular ophthalmologist suggested she go there.
Don’t worry. They won’t be.
It could be a reaction to the vaccine. It might not be. Almost impossible to know and harder to prove.
Herpes zoster reactivation — a.k.a. shingles — following COVID-19 vaccination in six patients with comorbid autoimmune/inflammatory diseases may be a new adverse event associated with the Pfizer/BioNTech mRNA vaccine, suggested a new report.
Eh time will tell. Again, they were vaccinated earlier than many...
I think it has become an issue because coworker will not be able to work...And wants/needs to...
I hope they can find a good specialist.
Signs and symptoms of optic neuritis can be the first indication of multiple sclerosis (MS), or they can occur later in the course of MS. MS is a disease that causes inflammation and damage to nerves in your brain as well as the optic nerve.
Besides MS, optic nerve inflammation can occur with other conditions, including infections or immune diseases, such as lupus. Rarely, another disease called neuromyelitis optica causes inflammation of the optic nerve and spinal cord.
Most people who have a single episode of optic neuritis eventually recover their vision without treatment. Sometimes steroid medications may speed the recovery of vision after optic neuritis.
The exact cause of optic neuritis is unknown. It’s believed to develop when the immune system mistakenly targets the substance covering your optic nerve, resulting in inflammation and damage to the myelin.
Normally, the myelin helps electrical impulses travel quickly from the eye to the brain, where they’re converted into visual information. Optic neuritis disrupts this process, affecting vision.
The following autoimmune conditions often are associated with optic neuritis:
Multiple sclerosis. Multiple sclerosis is a disease in which your autoimmune system attacks the myelin sheath covering nerve fibers in your brain. In people with optic neuritis, the risk of developing multiple sclerosis after one episode of optic neuritis is about 50% over a lifetime.
Your risk of developing multiple sclerosis after optic neuritis increases further if an MRI scan shows lesions on your brain.
Neuromyelitis optica. In this condition, inflammation affects the optic nerve and spinal cord. Neuromyelitis optica has similarities to multiple sclerosis, but neuromyelitis optica doesn’t cause damage to the nerves in the brain as often as multiple sclerosis does. Still, neuromyelitis optica is more severe than MS, often resulting in a diminished recovery after an attack compared with MS.
Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody disorder. This condition can cause inflammation to the optic nerve, spinal cord or brain. Similar to MS and neuromyelitis optica, recurrent attacks of inflammation can occur. Recovery from MOG attacks is usually better than recovery from neuromyelitis optica.
