Vision & Eye Disorders Question
Posted: 01-03-06 22:55pm

I just started seeing a greyish whitish circular outline in both eyes when i look far right or left, almost stretching them. If i look right, its in my left peripheral of each eye. If i look left, its in my right peripheral of each eye. There is an island of dark black in my far far outer peripheral in each eye. It is really scary and i think this could be retinas pigmentosa. Its hard for me to see in the dim and looking at black objects in the light.

You can ask for an expert opinion from an ophthalmologist. An ophthalmoscopya must be performed to check the bottom of the eye and the condition of the retina.
