Hello everyone,

How are you today? emoticon cute

I thought I would create this discussion so we can get to know one another better!

There a number of disorders and diseases that affect the eyes, the most common of which are refractive errors (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism...), age-related macular megeneration (AMD), cataracts, diabetic retinopathy (DR), glaucoma, amblyopia, and strabismus!

And what about you? What eye condition(s) affect(s) you or your loved ones? When and how were you diagnosed? How do you cope with it?

Feel free to share and introduce yourself here! 

Take care,
Courtney
