flyingfox1 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 After a traumatic experience at the hands of a so called eye specialist at a Phathamtanii university hospital who wanted to stitch my eye up before sending me away and she made it clear that no further appointments would be needed or offered, thus condemning me to blindness in one eye. This lady eye specialist that one student called professor explained to my thai gf that I was going blind in one eye and was no further treatment for none Thais... I asked what treatment was available to Thais , she pointed toward the door and asked me to leave . I went to a international hospital in Bangkok for a second opinion , I was told that I had a virus in the eye and if it was treated early it would not of been so serious as to of lost 95% vision The new specialist could not understand why I was not given antivirus drops nor antibiotics at the first hosp nor could she understand why they wanted to stitch closed the eye thus making it untreatable.. I wasted 3 weeks on a quickly growing virus that was consuming my eye with no treatment other than dry- eye treatments that cost me 5000 bhat I point blank refused to let her stitch up my eye even though she offered to do it for 500bt <deleted> Crazy scary stuff I suffered with extreme pain while a so called doctor ( possibly a student) forced a wire cradle type contraption into my eye socket I was also restrained by other patents so to assist this monster doctor carry out this procedure against my will. Pain level off the scale !! Now after going to “a real Hospital” my specialist has proscribed me with the correct treatment and I’m treated with respect and dignity not like cattle as in the previous. My eyesight slowly improving to 30% viz now with meds drips every hour from the fridge ( I have 3 months supply) and antivirus, 10/10 for new hosp, no pain she’s pretty doc to Now on Road to recovery instead of blindness .. I wear a plaster type eye patch but as I have to take it off each hour for meds, I’m really going throu them any eye socket getting tender so leather eye patch is the way forward I think.. if anyone can point me in the right direction it will be appreciated- The fox Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tifino Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 are you needing to keep all pressure away from the eyeball? i.e. what about one of those convex plastic types, that provides spacial clearance for the eye from abrasion&pressure contact etc (I am focussing on eye protection methods used for PostOp IOL type clinical procedures, but the principal is the same... for frontal protection) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Rutnin Eye Hospital (Asok, Bangkok) has a reputation as being the most overall competent Eye disorder treatment facility in Thailand. If I had a disorder as serious as yours, that would be where I would go next. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheryl Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I would think cotton would be better than leather as yo udo not want to totally seal off air flow nor create an environment where fungal infections would thrive. Probably best to just have one made as I don't know of anywhere you can but it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
