Hello, everyone... I have a concern that maybe someone can help me with. I am a 26 year old male and I have been suffering from DR and Depression for about five and a half months now. I also seem to suffer from insonmia because I wake up very frequently during the night, I do alot of dreaming when I finally do sleep and then I wake up very early in the morning and am not able to fall back asleep.Its gotten a little bit better but now in the past few weeks I have noticed a problem with my vision. Its not exactly what you would call blurred vision but more of almost like a foggy vision. I notice that I have a problem with glare meaning that if its a sunny day and the sun is reflecting off something bright outside it seems brighter then usual. I also notice when I am driving that the headlights of other cars seems to be bothering my eyes as well as sometimes I notice a halo around bright lights at night. I was wondering if anyone here that suffers or suffered from DP/DR ever noticed any vision symptoms like this.
Another thing I wanted to mention was that a few days ago I sent an email to one of these online medical websites where for a certain fee you can ask a doctor a health question and I asked them about my vision problems as well as the DP/DR and depression and he told me that its possible that all of my problems are being caused by using a computer too much. He said that the vision problems could just be eye strain and the symptoms of insonmia,depression and even the derealization could all be coming from an overstimulation of my eyes from the computer which is what is making my vision weird, interfering with my sleep and ultimately causing depression and DR. In my case I do believe this is very possible because I use a computer all day at work and at night and on the weekends I spend a huge amount of time on the computer at home. So since I found this out I have been trying to spend less time on the computer. I really have no control over it at work but I try to be online less now when I am home to see if it makes me feel any better.
Anyway, just curious if anybody has any feedback about any of this.
Thanks.
