How did the patient lose vision in her eye?
He explains that on one occasion, when he was 14 years old, when he got home after training he had a headache, so he took medicine for it and went to sleep. Ahe next day, according to her account, she woke up like any other day but felt dizzy, she also realized that although her eyes were open she could not see anything with her left eye.
Not seeing with one of his eyes, he did what anyone else would have done at that age, tell his parents, however, the parents ignored his symptoms. After two days of what happened, her parents took her to a doctor, this time, the doctors who treated her did not believe her either and referred her to a psychiatrist.
At the psychiatrist they did tests to find out if she suffered from any psychological damage, since everything came out negative, the specialist had to examine the patient. At the end of the examination, the doctor ordered that tests be carried out at the Guadalajara Specialty Medical Center.
After a week of studies, the doctors were finally able to diagnose her with optic neuritis. According to the Mayo Clinic, Optic neuritis occurs when inflammation damages the optic nerve, a bundle of nerve fibers that transmits visual information from the eye to the brain. Common symptoms of optic neuritis include pain with eye movement and temporary vision loss in one eye.
