Seeing Blue Dot
Posted: 08-13-08 13:21pm

Hi,


I am seeing a small blue dot a few times a day. The frequency of the appearances have been steadily increasing over the last few months. Very rarely I see a cressent shaped flash of light at the edge of my vission- but that might be because of my contacts. Today, the blue dot was a bit bigger and had a slight halo around it.

My ophthalmologist said the occasional appearance of a blue dot is normal. I have pretty horrible near-sightedness and am a glaucoma suspect (I'm under 30). He says my prescription is so bad that it is hard to tell what is normal. He says I have a thin ...cornea?....and high pressure. But the vision field and HRT ( don't remember the acronym, sorry) tests came back normal.

I guess if he thinks its normal - it probably is- to see spots...but I'm a bit worried anyway due to the recent appearance and the increases in frequencies.

I do not have floaters, do not see black bars, or flashes of light that cover the entire vision field.


Any similar experiences? should I be more/less worried? Anything that might help?



Thanks Very
Happy
