I saw the Opthamologist today because I've been having awful problems with my vision for a while now. My eyesight has declined quite a bit, which he says he doesn't see a lot in people my age (47), other than needing to go to bifocals. (Which I have a prescription for.)
The other thing is, I have cataracts already! He said they are around the rim and not covering the center yet. I asked if the Prednisone could do that and he said it might speed things up a little, but he didn't think it was the main cause.
My question is, would this have anything to do w/ the CF? I hadn't heard of it in any of my readings, but just thought I'd ask. My mother has macular degeneration, glaucoma and both parents had cataract surgery last year. Maybe I just inherited some bad eye genes. But if you have CF and had early cataracts or vision deterioration (in over 30yrs of age) I would like to hear it.
