He said i have fading/thinning of the eye... now... what the fuck is that suppose to be? i've never heard the term used before.

Wooww thats pretty bad.. It means there might be a nerve damaged in your eyes.. leading to blindness... it's not curable.. I hope it's not glacoma..

but you can prevent it.. go to your eye doctor regular..

Probably not the most positive response for someone who has just received some news which may be a bit of a shock.

'if it's diagnosed and treated early enough, further damage to your vision can be prevented.'

So it seems from that it's very good news it's been recognised so early and you certainly shouldn't panic or worry unnecessarily.

"Glaucoma is a disease in which the optic nerve is damaged, leading to progressive, irreversible loss of vision. It is often, but not always, associated with increased pressure of the fluid in the eye."

"Glaucoma has been nicknamed the "sneak thief of sight" because the loss of vision normally occurs gradually over a long period of time and is often only recognized when the disease is quite advanced. Once lost, this damaged visual field can never be recovered. Worldwide, it is the second leading cause of blindness."

"Glaucoma affects 1 in 200 people aged fifty and younger, and 1 in 10 over the age of eighty. If the condition is detected early enough it is possible to arrest the development or slow the progression with medical and surgical means."

"There are rarely any symptoms in the early stages of the disease so regular eye checks by qualified professionals are important. Ophthalmologists and optometrists will diagnose glaucoma on the basis of intraocular pressure, visual field tests and optic nerve head appearance.
Patients will sometimes notice patchy loss of peripheral vision or reduced clarity of colours and these people may benefit from a review by an eye specialist.
Symptoms of angle closure glaucoma can include pain in or around the eye ball, headache, nausea/vomiting and visual disturbances, for example halos around lights. In some cases there are no symptoms."

Well glad it isn't glaucoma... myopia is nearsightedness.. so your nearsighedtness is causing the thinning of your eyes.. do you wear glasses?

Myopia just means glasses or contact lenses or if you're really brave surgery.

Im currenly trying to get contact lenses in myself, well for the last month actually! :0P

As for his other diagnosis, I have no idea what he's on about and can find nothing about it.

Some healthcare professionals are terrible at explaining themselves and he sounds like one of them.
