I woke up blind in one eye. It was obvious something was wrong. I’m just stubborn. You’re right about vision being narrower. It was fascinating looking at my blind eye in the mirror.
My vision was randomly going cross-eyed for two weeks before it happened. Also small circular headache in the back corner of my head.
If anyone has those symptoms in the future, get to the hostptintal like the meme says.
Ah, if it was truly blind in one eye that would be a retinal artery occlusion which is a stroke equivalent, just affecting the retina itself instead of the brain. That one you can see black sometimes. If it’s the visual brain centers in the occipital lobe, it’ll be half the vision in each eye, and that’s the one where field of view is just narrower and you don’t really perceive any dark area.
But as you said, point is this stuff is confusing, if any doubt, go to the hospital. Doctors would much rather a false alarm than people showing up too late to do anything.
You know your stuff. Corated artery is also 100 blocked. That’s fun too.
One small correction for you though. You don’t see anything when the eye is gone. No black no flesh color. Everything was just kinda shifted to the other side. It took a few months to get the top half of that eyes vision back. Now it’s all black, except it turns bright ass white when I close my eyes. Good times good times.
You’re right, I was clarifying sometimes with the eye you might perceive black as opposed to the brain where you generally won’t, but it may not be universally true. Sorry that happened though, strokes suck.
