In this highly requested follow-up, Dr. Linda Bluestein and recurring co-host Dr. Dacre Knight welcome back neuro-ophthalmologist Dr. Eric Singman to dive deeper into the complex intersection of the eyes, the brain, and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Dr. Singman shares a vital triage guide for navigating the world of eye specialists, helping listeners distinguish between routine vision needs and neuro-ophthalmic emergencies. The discussion explores how intracranial pressure fluctuations, cervical spine instability, and mast cell activation can all masquerade as primary eye problems, often leading patients down expensive and ineffective "snake oil" paths. Whether you struggle with reading endurance, "glitter" vision, or the visual impacts of POTS, this episode provides a roadmap for finding credible care and understanding the "why" behind hypermobile vision symptoms.
