NAION stands for non-arteritic Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy. This is a mini stroke of the optic nerve that results in sudden vision loss, usually upon awakening. In my case, the NAION. It occurs when the back of the eye is crowded with gunk such as swelling or bad optic nerve curve or scar tissue or inflammation, and/or gets poor circulation, and/or in relation to cardiovascular problems.
In my case, the NAION caused an instant Vitreous Hemorrhage. Tis is basically when the back of the eye bleeds into the gel-filled cavity in the center of the eye. Specifically to me, the back of the eye bled into the eue, filling the center of my eye and an existing cataract with blood. I looked out into traffic that night and could not tell if cars were coming or going because the headlights were as bright red as taillights.
Admittedly, I am a smokin’, tooth-grindin’, Type-A ("A for asshole," I’ve been told), tightly wound diabetic. Most eye doctors have discounted the effect of the Cialis on the hemorrhage that was part of my posterior NAION. They say that NAION is bound to occur with people who have diabetes or high blood pressure and is not the fault of Cialis or Viagra or any other boner pill that the patient may have taken.
My response is, "Who, exactly, are the target markets for boner pills? That’s right: people who have diabetes or high blood pressure."
No drug was rushed through FDA approval faster than the boner pill. Men want it, including men in the FDA and legislature and those who make a living as doctors. The boner pill is here to stay, and if the unsafe dfrop in blood pressure pops a few guys’ eyes, that is a small price to pay for the enjoyment of millions.
What I have wondered without sarcasm is if the fact that I did not take advantage of the Cialis in mt system was a factor in this. The date for whom I took the pill didn’t go that far and I did not take matters into my own hands.
Could my mother have been wrong? Could not masturbating have made me go blind?!
