Name for eye disorder Opthamologist sees but causes no problem with my vision?!
Question: I have used just about every search engine I can think of and can't find the eye disorder that I have; and am embarrassed to call my surgeon to ask him what I have.When he looks into my left eye he always gets very excited and says, "Yes, I always forget that you are my patient that has ????????". He then tells me the name of the disorder and says it is very beautiful for him to look at. (Go figure - this man is a gorgeous hunk and all he sees in me is an eye disorder! LOL). Regardless, I did write the name of the disorder down once a few years ago and found a picture of it on the internet. Indeed, it is a very pretty sight. From what I remember it was a lot of brightly colored spots. They are only visible to the doctor upon examination and cause no visual problems to me at all. I was telling my daughter about this the other night and wanted to look up the picture to show her. I know if I see the name of the disorder I will recognize it. Please help if you can ~Donna

Asteroid Hyalosis? Appears like gold dustings in the vitreous when examined.
I have no clue why don't you call the doctor's nurse to find out what it's called or you might be reminded once you see or hear it again - here's a site to do just that.
