Adie's Eye   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #104 of 1249 |
Hi. I was finally diagnosed with Adie's eye about two weeks ago. It
was quite stressful at the time. I've still got a CT scan booked
although the neurologist believes it will give no new information.

I have some questions, that I have not been able to find answers to.

First - why is this mostly attributed to women?

Second - What causes this? I have had no head trauma or eye
injuries.

I did not know I had one dilated pupil until trying on frames for new
glasses and a person at the store asked if I knew. No headaches, no
colds.

I have worn contacts for 20 years. Does anyone know if I should
continue to wear contacts or is this in some way harmful to the eye.
I have worn my glasses since I found out.

There doesn't seem to be alot of info on this problem out there. I
found nothing in our public library. The internet has been my best
source although most links all come back to the same one. Does
anyone have any other sites or know of any books?

Thanks for listening
Muffygirl
