I am having one of those days my eyes dont want to play the image keeps going double or indeed I seem to drop of to sleep while looking at the page. I know it is tirdness as my optician has already put a prisim over one eye to help correct an imbalance so here I am squiffy keep having to read stuff and all because of no sleep again. Long night me tired as usual still dont want to waste day so coffee and a good wash basically a pick me up see if that is any better/ I hope you are all OK xxgins

Hi Gins.

I've noticed I get strange floaters and sometimes a "sight sensation" like the beginning of a migraine but without actual sight disturbance? When I worked I had to read lots of paperwork and documents on screen and regularly nodded off doing so, which upset some supervisors somehow, can't understand why...

Hope you feel better after the coffee.

I tend to be getting worse with my vision but I have dry eyes a lot and when I'm tired they get very itchy

Yes all the time. Floaters in vision, extra "auras" around things and double vision. I usually get it by mid day if I have been trying to function like a normal person in any way.

Yep me too! Loads of floaters all the time (not to worry about They say) and dry sore eyes in ratio to tiredness level. Sometimes brain sees stuff but can't make sense of it... also get vision disturbance and sometimes 'sparkles' (BP tested but always ok)

Interesting how amny of us are affected... Keep on rocking guys! xx

Hi all

Yep I got floaters in my left eye now. I am at work and my energy has all but gone. I paid £800 for new glasses in April this year, they have helped a little but double vision is now part of my life...

Have you been to see about the double vision .I had that years ago and I had an over active Thyroid which caused Graves disease .double vision but an over active Thyroid can cause heart trouble.

I have to say I developed an under active thyroid a year later which a lot of people with Fibro have

Yes I get black floaters which can be a sign of anaemia for which my blood tests always come back "borderline" and white flashes out of the corner of my eyes which were tested at the hospital & they told me because of my age (an ancient 51) the vitreous jelly (can't remember the technical term) was slowly coming away at the back of my eyes and would get worse although nothing to worry about at the moment but no more roller coasters or bungee jumping as I could go blind. Damn & I was going to offer to do a sponsored bungee jump for Fibro charity! I'll have to think of something else. Oh & does anyone else find that there eyes take a long time to focus in the morning, mine take ages.
