I went to the opthamologist today. He told me that my eyes look really good, with no signs of infection, swelling, or damage. Actually, he said that he just published a medical journal report about the side effects of Clomid on vision, so this was an area he was comfortable with. Clomid was giving me what are known as tracers - essentially, when I move my hand in front of my face, a ghost hand follows a split second later.. now imagine the walls, people, stationary objects - any time my eyes move, a ghost image follows everything. Freaky, right?
Anyway, Dr. Myers (the opth.) said that this is a really minor side effect, and one that he doesn't expect to cause any damage.He gave me the all-clear to continue doing Clomid if I want/need to. Actually, what he said is "if there's another treatment, do it; but I have no concerns if your doctor wants to put you back on Clomid at some point".
I think I"ll call Dr. Willmore on Monday and see what he thinks. I suppose there is still the matter of Clomid not working,but I would really like one more chance.. it obviously worked once.
