Sudden Double Vision Posted: 01-03-08 18:53pm
My fiance is 28 and has perfect vision. He
has never had any health problems and is
physically active and eats very healthily.
About two weeks ago, he was playing video
games in the evening, his eyes went a
little wonky so he went to bed thinking he
was just tired. He woke up the next
morning with double vision. One image is
about 5 inches above the other! It's not
getting any better and he's getting
headaches all day now from the stress of
unfocused images.
When it first happened he wasn't in any
pain or discomfort.
When he looks up, the images focus, when
he looks straight ahead he sees double.
The optometrist said there's still nothing
wrong with his eyes and says it's
something to do with the signal not
traveling properly from his eye to his
brain.
We have an appointment for a neurologist
now, but it's making me really nervous!!
Does anybody know what this could possibly
be!!

I was driving in a bad snow storm and got
double vision. That was ten years ago and
I still got it. I was told it was a mini
stroke. My eye is cross now and I was
told if I get it fix it would be very bad.
All the doctors says it is the wiring
from the eye to the brain. I have check
it out over and over again. still no help
out there for it. I have to sit side way
in a car to drive right. jack

Last summer my mother was diagnosed with
Myasthenia Gravis and double vision was
her only symptom.
