double vision

[piglet3]

can anybody suggest any eye exercises to alleviate double vision brought on by .CA. thanks.

This is a problem we all have - I remember my Dad trying to count his sheep and getting twice as many! Lol.

Like anything exercise and strengthening helps.

I try to look diagonally in the top and bottom corners, up and down and sideways. I also get neck ache so I nod up and down 50 times.and pretend I am still driving so sideways (maximum stretch).

Hope this helps x

I also developed this problem. I too do exercises but what really helps is covering one eye.. Convergence is weak, says the neuro-opthomologist. XXXN

I too do these eye exercises. I hold for a count of ten in each position and then move the eye in a circular movement in one direction and then the other. l always finish with a eye massage (rub) with warm hands.

I don't have double vision but the exercises have really helped me

Wear an eye patch occasionally. Don't watch tv or look at screens longer than 45mins at a time

I relieve my double vision with a hot cup of tea, a biscuit and a half a nap, 😀

My neuro physio gave me some exercises to do, one of which was to focus on a point/ object straight in front of me at eye level, turn my head from side to side, slowly at first then build up to as fast as I can whilst the object remains still in focus so my eyes are still facing forward. X
