This episode answer questions related to black arc in the eyes, hemifacial nerve spasm, dry eye syndrome, double vision, and cataract surgery as it relates to releasing intraocular pressure.
Question 1
0:31 – 11:00
Hello, Dr. Berne! I’m a bit concerned. I started seeing a black arc in my right eye that comes and goes. Mostly if I look up quickly, it looks like an eyebrow. It’s not flashing but it is instantaneous. I don’t think it is a floater.
I’ve been checking with your videos but not seeing this specific thing. Would you be so kind as to have an idea for me? Thank you!!
Question 2
11:00 – 15:55
I have some questions about hemifacial nerve spasm. What is it? What can I do about it?
Question 3
15:55 – 22:42
I have dry eye syndrome mainly tearing. I am going to a dry eye specialist. He recommends the treatment Lipiflow, thermal lid treatments, supplements, eye wash, and tree oil with a moist compress. I prefer to use your drops. Thank you for your advice!
Question 4
22:42 – 28:33
Hi, Dr. Berne! I have been on your mailing list for some time now. I take several of your supplements, and I regularly view your videos. I am grateful to you for the helpful information.
I am referring to a specific video, where you talk about double vision and therapeutic prisms. I am 66 years old. I’ve had high myopia all my life. Recently I have developed double vision. The doctors have cleared me of any neurological issues. I’m told I have esophoria, and he recommended surgery.
However, I’m not keen about surgery. I am interested in learning more about your therapeutic prisms. I’d appreciate your advice.
Question 5
28:33 – 35:44
I have small vessels in my eyes that are too narrow and are building up pressure, in addition to cataracts. My Ophthalmologist wants to do a pinhole technique to relieve the pressure (my brother had the same thing done years ago with success).
He said the cataract surgery would solve both issues with only one procedure. I would rather try the cataract drops. Would they help in my case? And would you expect any improvement by the end of May, when I am scheduled for the surgery?
In my eye history, I have also had RK done about 30 years ago before lasers were invented. I wish I could have an office visit, but I live in Illinois. Thanks much for your help!
