Hi I have the same symptom ghosting both eyes and I feel it gets worse. I went with 2 different eye doctors and they told me nothing wrong with my eyes, even I see starbursts on lights, LEDS and reflect of the sun. Could some of you tell me if you find a solution??
An update: Visited the famous All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi, India. They said that i have some form of astigmatism and eye convergence issue. They have prescribed new glasses and eye workouts (orthoptic workup). Have been doing those eye exercises for the past one week - it is better now, the light beams that i used to see from the light source has become slightly better. Waiting for the new glasses.
When you say contact lens do u suggest a hard or soft contact lens? I tried a soft contact lens for a day and it does not seem to work.
Yes I saw the Regina specialist last month, he said that there were minor weak spots in my pheripheral vision and got a minor laser done. But he said this will not solve the issue with ghosting which came out to be true. Otherwise he said my Retina was ok.
Yes I do wear glasses and the ghosting appear despite wearing or wearing glasses.
First of all I want to be sure you are under the care of Eye MDs and not optometrists. Your eye condition and diabetes needs a MD physician. If that is the case its not clear how many physicians you've seen. The Pentacam tests the central cornea. I would suggest you get a second opinion from a cornea/refractive surgeon. Ask about a corneal topography which would give a better look at the peripheral cornea. Yes an early cataract could cause these symptoms. If you have have type 1 diabetes and have had for more than 10-15 years cataracts are not unusual especially if your diabetes is not well controlled (A1c >7.0)
The other thing I would suggest is a macular OCT as you could also have diabetic macular swelling (edema)
