What has one eye, but can’t see?

A young boy went to a Catholic school. During school, he started goofing around, so the teacher called him out and sent him to the Pastor. Since this was a traditional school the boy would be spanked, but the Pastor believed in giving people a chance. He said, "If you can ask me a question about something you learned and I don't know the answer on the spot you will go free." The boy may have been lazy, but he was very witty. He asked, " What is it that you can see and I can see, usually every day, but God cannot see." The Pastor stood there, stumped. He couldn't figure it out because he strongly believed that God sees and knows all, and that there is only one God. The boy smiled and told him. What was it?

But she did notice, especially when she backed into another car in a grocery store parking lot. “I had looked over my right shoulder when I backed up, but I failed to remember that I didn’t have the full range of vision that I had before,” she said. “You are continually reminded of your loss in vision efficiency.” That’s when Rice accepted a referral from The referral was part of a formal protocol Dr. Whitaker has developed to help retrain adults who have lost vision in just one eye (monocular vision loss), whether that loss is caused by trauma, infection, or tumor. It takes more work than most might think to adjust to this type of sudden loss. “Some people assume that if you have one eye with good vision, you will function the same way you would if you have two eyes. In fact, many eye doctors have underestimated the time required to adjust to losing one eye,” Dr. Whitaker said. But studies have shown that adults who lose the sight in one eye have declines in their abilities to accurately track moving objects, to judge distances, and to perceive depth. That means they will have to learn how to consciously use one eye and their other senses to gather the information their two eyes once collected effortlessly. “The automatic pilot no longer works automatically,” Rice said. “It was so refreshing to discover Dr. Whitaker and the help she can give, because she truly understands, as much as a person with two eyes can.” Dr. Whitaker’s intervention prescribes training in three spe...

• Trauma: The immediate emotional response to a life-changing, tragic, and/or stressful event. • Shock and denial: Having thoughts like: "This is not happening to me," feeling emotionally and mentally numb, having hope for an unrealistic miracle that will restore the lost sight. • Mourning and withdrawal: Feeling as though all is lost, grieving various aspects of a former life (everything a person could do before with full sight that they're no longer able to do), experiencing anger, followed by withdrawal. • Succumbing and depression: The feeling of "giving in" to lost independence and abilities, as well as the onset of depressive symptoms, including despair, discouragement, disinterest, distress, despondency, and disenchantment. • Reassessment and reaffirmation: Reaching a turning point and realizing that life is still worth living. • Coping and mobilization: Learning to manage to live with one eye and focusing on the abilities a person still has—rather than what they've lost. • Self-acceptance and self-Esteem: Coming to terms with one's abilities and limitations with monocular vision, eventually achieving self-approval and self-respect. Also, it's important to note that being blind in one eye—or having an eye that is missing completely—does not qualify a person to receive disability benefits. For someone already dealing with the emotions that come with facing their new reality of living with one eye, finding out that they don't qualify for disability benefits can feel l...

The term "ocular migraine" can be confusing. Headache specialists don't use this term anymore. In the past, it generally meant a migraine that was accompanied by changes in vision. But the term is often used interchangeably to refer to two different conditions: migraine with aura, which usually isn't serious, and retinal migraine, which could signal something serious. Most commonly the term "ocular migraine" had been used to describe what is now called migraine with aura. Retinal migraine is extremely rare, and the visual changes are in only one eye. When visual changes are only in one eye, they could signal something serious and require immediate treatment. Migraine aura affecting your vision Migraine aura is a wave of activity in the brain traveling through the brain. The location of the wave of activity in the brain determines the type of aura. The most common type of aura is a visual aura. About 90% of people who have migraine with aura have this type. It's thought that auras are usually visual because such a large portion of the brain processes visual information. If the wave of activity goes through other areas of the brain such as the sensory or language centers, then the person would have sensory (for example, tingling in the tongue, face or arm) or language auras. The auras usually last for about five minutes to an hour. Aura can sometimes occur without a headache. A migraine aura that affects your vision is common. Visual symptoms don't last long.
