ive always had severe eye ticcs and they have always been embarrassing and painful
the cause headaches and eye pain
this last year they have been causing blurred vision in my left eye
my eye ticcs are so frequent now when im out and especially when i need them most i have vision no more than 50% of the time
most activities are dangerous to me now more than ever
Would i be right in saying that i am vision impaired seeing as i have limited use of my eyesight even though my eyes were tested and came back 100% healthy and good vision when they keep still although my left eye loses vision everyday progressively as the day goes on
i find i have to be guided more often by my wife too
