This is a very serious problem. I have it in both eyes; but worse in my right eye. Last year I had to have surgery to repair a “macular hole” where I lost the central vision. Fortunately it was successful and I have pretty decent vision now and take those eye vitamins but this is a very, very serious problem. Anyone interested in this subject should look on the internet for an Amsler eye grid and if any of the lines are bending you have it and should get on top of it. Diabetes and high blood pressure are contributing factors. Do not take this lightly; unless you want to get used to a seeing eye dog and white cane.

I didn’t know there was a surgery option...guess I better get to my eye doctor.
