Macular oedema

Dear Dr
Last year i had a retina detachment in my right eye and silicone oil was inserted as tamponade. Last month the oil was removed. Even after one month my vision is poor. I see dark spot in the middle. Moreover, the vision is wavy. OCT was done to find macular oedema. Kenakort sub tenon inj was given a week ago. I would like to take homoeopathic medicines for remedy.
I get glare in bright light and soon after that vision becomes dim. It takes nearly 6 to 7 hours to recover. The vision is hazy and washed out in the middle. I feel better in the morning and worse in the evening. Now a days the sleep is light and wake up in the middle of the night.
Can you please suggest medicines to be taken?
Regards
Kaushik

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Please take three doses of Phosphorus 200 as follows and see how that affects in next 15 days. You should take only 3 doses in 15 days.

day 1 morning
1st dose

day 1 evening
2nd dose

day 2 morning
3rd dose

One dose means
If the medicine is in pills form 2 pills. Don't touch pills with hand. Use cap of bottle to take pills.
If the medicine is in liquid dilution form, 1 drop in some 20 ml water. Sip up slowly.

Please follow homeo restrictions like no coffee, no raw onion/garlic, no strong perfumes, don't eat or drink anything within 30 minutes before or after taking medicine.

Thanks a lot Dr Kadwa for the reply.
Since I had already started to take Ferrum Phos 6X thrice a day, can I take Phosphorus 200 along with the above medicine?

Regards

Please don't take ferrum phos 6x on the days (only 2 days) you take Phosphorus 200.
 
kadwa last decade
After restarting Ferrum Phos 6x for how many days I should continue this medicine?
I am also taking Divya Triphaladi ghrita(ayurvedic prepartion). Hope this will not conflict with homoeo medicine.

Please don't take ferrum phos 6x for 10 days after taking Phos 200. The ghrita won't interfere with the homeopathic remedy.

sharmakaushik last decade
Please tell what has gone on- anything better, anything the same.,
anything worse. This is needed to give you advice.
 
simone717 last decade
I have not found any change in the status.
 
sharmakaushik last decade
No follow-ups on the above case? So, there's no further remedy I would imagine?
 
shayonbh last decade
On examination by a Ophthalmologist iy was found that I had a retina re-detachment with 3 holes. So I was operated upon and I still have the silicone oil inserted. The recovery is awfully slow. Now I am looking for stem cell implantation.
 
sharmakaushik last decade
I am extremely sorry to hear about this. Hope everything works out fine for you. Has the stem cell implantation for RETINA been established yet and widely accepted in the medical fraternity? What are the pros and cons and the prognosis?
 
shayonbh last decade
