Re: Vertical Binocular Diplopia

Hi,

Mine was caused by a stroke. My brain eventually learned to deal with the spurious input, by ignoring it.

In my case, it was horizontal kinda sorta.

Instead of looking right with my eyeballs moving, I look straight ahead and turn my neck.

I could have gone with a prism in my glasses--but then I'd have double vision more or less all the time the glasses are off.

I did immediately start taking vitamin K-2 and magnesium to restore the levels that were lowered by the vitamin.

I try not to drive at night, but it is much better than it was in 2013.

Chiropractic adjustment seemed to provide some relief.

I asked about wearing a patch to make the right eye do all the work. That apparently is not the issue. It is that one set of muscles gets no signal from my brain--so the eye can't move in sync with the left eye.

I no longer notice the problem--except at the Optometrist, or if I am extremely tired.

I do some exercises for my neck to make sure I don't loose function.
