The tumor that took my vision, did so, by smashing and thus killing my optical nerves. So that means that if you look at me, my eyes appear fine (as they are) so I have to make a really quick decision as to how I want to deal with who ever it is I am talking to…….do I want to try to nutshell the fact that I was blinded by a HUGE brain tumor and tell them that I can’t see real well OR just act as though I am fine (even though I am clearly not ok) So when people see me texting or writing an email they think “he’s not blind!” but I am fucking blind and the only reason I can text or email is really simple……WHITE LETTERS ON A BLACK BACKGROUND!! It sounds stupid but it is the reality of my hell on earth. I used to be so independent but I have been reduced to what amounts to a child and it fuckin blows, as if I needed ANOTHER reason to want to just end it. EVERYTHING that we use our vision to do is unbeleivably hard now and I do mean EVERYTHING!

Hey I’m sorry, gosh that sucks, and yes vision along with hearing is probably our most important sense. I dunno what I’d do without it, seeming as I’m such a visual person. I feel for you bro, I don’t know what else to say…
tattoo400,
About eye seeing problem, one of the reason can be related to restricted blood flow within the back of the head, near the neck.
If it is a benevolent tumor, and not related to mystical cause, and eye not permanently damage in form, the vision can be restored with herbs alone by shrinking the tumor.
Herbs can flush the waste out from the body, thus ensuring normal blood flow.
