Brighter Right Eye After Eclipse?
Since the eclipse last Monday 8/21/2017 I didn't notice a change in my vision until Friday 8/25/2017. My left eye seems normal, but my right eye seems like I see things a little brighter and is sensitive to light. It's been pretty weird getting used to it. I don't know if this is solar retinopathy. I wonder how long this vision change may last. I don't smoke, I exercise, I have now started eating carrots, kale and drinking 3 cups of water a day. I have started a veggie diet to try and improve recovery. I go to my doctor on Friday 9/1 so I will let him know everything but I wanted to get thoughts on this. in the morning my eye still sometimes hurts. I don't know if that is because its still in the process of healing or recovering.

An eclipse has absolutely NO effect on anything (except maybe how light it is). It's not magical in any way and has no supernatural powers. There are LOTS of folks who've posted here who think otherwise, including one who was in a darkened room during the eclipse.
The thing that can, and almost certainly will, damage your eyesight is looking at the sun. But surely everyone knows this and no one is going to be stupid enough to do it.

Go to the hospital, i think you should get it checked out sooner, go to the ER. Were you looking at the eclipse?
