What Causes Vision Impairment In One Eye?

The vision in my right eye is impaired. When I watch the screen on TV and put a hand over my left eye the vision in my right eye is scratchy and waverey and I have a pulsating feeling in the eye. It is OK with both eyes open, but I am sensing an unusual feeling on the right side of my eye socket. I have been using Xalatan drops, 1 in each eye for a few years now and regularly get my eyes checked. My impairment has only just started to happen. I am aware that something is not right.

Welcome to HCM portal.
In view of your previous history it is imperative that you have a immediate eye check up including iop measurement and optic disc assessement so that if the damage is reversible it can be controlled immediately.
