Methanol-laced drink permanently damaged her optic nerves at age 19. She is still living a full life. #blindness #disability #opticnerve

I was 19 and on the trip of a lifetime – then I drank a cocktail laced with methanol

In a bar in Bali, Ashley King was given a lethal drink. A day later, she realised she was going blind. She thought all her dreams were over – but the reality proved very different

I discovered #comics properly in the 80's when we saw a lot of stuff for an older audience being translated into Swedish and published by a few anthology magazines like #Epix. Since then it's been an on and off affair, largely depending on whether I had any money to spend on it.
So after (re) discovering #StrangersInParadise the other day, I realised how much I've missed comics over the last ten or twenty years.
I have a lot of #LoveAndRockets to catch up on. Is #OpticNerve still a thing? Etc.

Optic disc drusen

Optic disc drusen appear as small, yellowish deposits within the optic nerve head and are visible on fundus examination, often with a lumpy or irregular appearance. These drusen can sometimes simulate optic disc edema, so accurate identification is essential. They may increase the risk of visual field defects and require monitoring for associated complications. #OpticDiscDrusen #FundusExam #OpticNerve #VisualFieldDefects #RetinaImaging #retina…

Optic disc drusen

Optic disc drusen are calcified deposits within the optic nerve head, often visible on fundus autofluorescence (FAF) as hyperautofluorescent spots. FAF imaging enhances the detection of drusen by highlighting their autofluorescent properties, aiding in differentiation from other optic nerve abnormalities and in monitoring potential complications like visual field defects. #OpticDiscDrusen #FAF #Hyperautofluorescence #OpticNerve #RetinaImaging #retina…
