Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having eye problem in the form of hypopyon, retinal spots... These problems can be caused by metastatic malignancies like leukaemia. Hence this requires examination by a ophthalmologist by slit lamp examination and indirect ophthalmoscopy.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.

Thank you
