Glaucoma & Derealization

Background: I started experiencing what were diagnosed as “Migraines” back in 2012 after a pickup game of basketball. Fast forward 11 years later, dealing with increased occurrence of these “Migraines” and several “eye doctors” insisting it wasn’t eye related, I finally was diagnosed with Glaucoma. The “migraines” were actually due to Pigment Dispersion Syndrome. If it isn’t obvious, I’m still bitter.

Anyways…

Discussion Topic: One thing that I’ve noticed and/or have been dealing with, specifically since my vision had been noticeably diminishing, is what I can only describe as is a growing sense of derealization.

Reflecting or looking back on my day or week, I feel like it was all somewhat dream like or unreal. I’m wondering if, along with my diminishing eyesight, I’m also losing a sense of perception of the world around me? I’m certainly past the initial shock that came with my diagnosis and this sensation definitely started before I knew I had glaucoma. So I don’t think it’s any sort of trauma from that.

I’m curious to know if others on here have been experiencing anything similar.

If so, how have you dealt with it?

Has it gone away or progressively gotten worse?
