Not a Twitch---a Visual Shake. Posted: 12-01-04 13:35pm
Hi all,
for the past week or so, i've been
experiencing a visual "shake" in my left
eye. As an example, when I cover my
right eye, and focus on an object with my
left, the item i'm focused on kinda
pulses. It kinda shifts then returns,
shifts, then returns, repeat, etc. Any
ideas, it's starting to give me
headaches.

Right Eye Jiggling Posted: 07-13-05 23:58pm
This sounds like my problem, which has
been getting worse over the last 9 months
or so. My left eye seems entirely
normal, but the vision in my right eye
sometimes becomes tilted (about 25
degrees, maybe) and shakes -- almost as if
the muscle is twitching from strain. The
double vision is strange -- i'm seeing two
horizon lines, one horizontal and the
other a few centimeters higher and on a
crazy incline. And my eye starts to hurt,
and I sometimes get headaches.
My opthalmologist has tried eye drops and
three different eyeglass prescriptions for
me -- various combinations of
magnification and prisms designed to
lessen eyestrain and correct misaligned
vision. Nothing has worked. In fact, it
seems to be getting worse.
I'm a writer by trade, so this condition
makes my life extremely difficult. Does
anyone have any ideas?
