I have cortical vision loss from brain bleed and brain surgery/ high intercranial pressure, usher syndrome type 2D, macular degeneration, ROP stage 3 and a plus disease, among a few others. I currently have only light perception.

I went to a new dr (my regular dr couldn’t get me in at the time) and he had a resident see me as well. When I was in the office with my mother and my guide dog my guide dog at one point stood up, my mother told me the dog did(out loud the drs heard) so I told my dog to lay back down. I have been visually impaired most my life so when someone is talking to me I know to look at there voice and I can sometimes make eye contact for short periods. Well when I got the notes from the appointment the dr put in he suspects I have functional vision loss(essentially faking my eye issues) even tho I have VEP’s, ERG, etc to prove my eye problems from another dr. I am was so mad I called and asked why they put that in the sheet. They’re answer...I knew when my guidedog stood up, knew how to sign my signature on a piece of paper when my mother moved my finger to the spot to sign and I was able to make eye contact sometimes.
What the heck never been to a eye dr that bad before.
