Sight

[haithy]

hey everyone...great forum going on here. anyways
i was just wondering if people have this problem, i seriously get blind for maybe 3 or 4 minutes straight (last minute sight starts comming back), after hits from a joint (its the only device i use). I will not be able to see anything no matter how close it was and my vision becomes pitch dark and there is like yellow blurry dots. haha its fun to have when ur in a house or sumthing but not cool when ur walkin outside :s .

P.S i started smoking since past october, and kinda do it every other day or so. never every day.

welcome, i have never heard of anyone having vision problems from smoking in fact its usually the opposite. i think it might be related to a more serious vision problem. you should definitely see an optomotrist about that.

mehhh...i also get the problem when im playing football (soccer), in warm ups or begining of the game i usually get that kind of feeling, my eyes start tingling then i gradually start dimming out (the sight). maybe its the rush of blood i get from being in a game or smoking in the backyard while parents are at home haha

marijuana heightens all my known sense and more...

never has fucked up my sight in any way and kinda like you said Doc, the opposite is moe true. When I am stoned and walking around in public, or riding my bike, my eyes and mind seem to move from one bit of life to another, like i turn left and right and every time my gaze stops, im focusing perfectly on a rabbit or a old lady or a cat or a bird....like a connection with nature appears which makes me more conscuiously aware of the natural elemnts of my environment.

i think a lack of oxygen might do that, do you hold your hits in?

[haithy]

yeah i do...u guys dont get it, it just happens for 3 to 5 minutes and then its back to a normal high. today was soo weird tho lol i smoked one in the bathroom and then i tried to put visine on before i came out , so i put it on and then u know how u have to open and close ur eyes for the visine to flow and dissolve, i did that but then when i opened i was blind on other occasions it just happens like that but for leess time

[Dr. Greenthumb]

it might be some kind of problem you have with your eye that should get checked out. for all you know smoke in your sinuses may make it worse. it sounds like a serious problem that need medical attention.

[haithy]

yeah i shall go to one this week or week after. also to go with that my eyes are always red, i think i have very sensitive eyes. i look blazed all the time even before i actually toked..weird eh

thanks for income guys that was helpful

[Dr. Greenthumb]

did you ever get this solved?

[Eugene]

Haithy, I had/have the same problem, never happened from smoking though.

When it happens, do you have a headache following the vision loss?

[haithy]

yeah headache follows thats when i just lie down. and just wait for it to go away...i went to the doctor and he said "no more monkeys jumping on the bed"...no seriously he said it has nothing to do with my vision actually, its just blood rushing through my brain and head at a really fast pace (more than usual). That is why lying down or just sitting down helps as it calms the blood rush down.

[Eugene]

I had the same problem and would get severe headaches while my vision would return, I had a severe case of chronic ocular migraines. You could have a less-serious case...

[fluffy100xr]

Its just your blood pressure rising too fast cuz you took a big hit. Too much and it could cause you to pass out. It also happends if your laying down for a while then you get up all a sudden and run around.

Thats fucked up. Maybe you should find out what the hell is in that weed man.
