Amaurosis Fugax treatment in Cancún

The ophthalmologist, in coordination with the internist and the cardiologist, usually evaluates amaurosis fugax, a temporary and sudden loss of vision in one eye that resolves on its own in a short time.

How it presents: It is described as a curtain or shadow covering the vision of one eye for a brief period, without pain.

Common causes: It may be related to alterations in blood flow to the eye, which is why it is considered a sign that deserves attention.

When to see a doctor? Although the episode passes quickly, it is worth evaluating, as it can provide insight into vascular health. Discussing it with a professional makes it possible to determine which studies are appropriate.
