So.... yesterday I was out in my yard using a metallic spray paint (from a can), and last night and especially today, my CRVO eye seems very affected. More blurry than normal.--
Last night I had an "oh my goodness" moment when I remembered that this feeling in my eye, is the same feeling I had after using metallic spray paint on the day before my vision problem. My initial thought at that time (which I had completely forgotten until now) was that the spray paint must have gotten into my eye. I just looked back at the date which I used the paint 10/5/2015 and the date I saw the doctor, which was a several days after the vision problem appeared, which was 10/9/2015.
I am devastated to think that I might have just re-injured my bad eye!! I am going to try to wash it out right now with saline, but I am wondering if any of you wonderful people may have any insight into this?
Thank you in advance for any help with this.

Hi Connie...
I have the same problem with blurriness if I put too much pressure on my eye when sleeping--in fact, it happens to my good eye as well as my RVO eye.Hopefully paint spraying isn't a problem for our eyes since I'm getting ready to paint our house with an airless sprayer. When I did spray painting before as a contractor I didn't bother with eye protection but these days it will be different.Bruce

Hi Bruce, I'm so sorry, but somehow I missed seeing your Reply until today. (Eight months later!)
Thank you for sharing your experiences. I also noticed a few other things which affect my CRVO eye, and some that effect both eyes. Sleeping on that side when my eye presses the pillow is one of them. Now I used a little tiny pillow and try to kind of hang my head off the edge of it so that my eye isn't pressed.
