Closed one eye and okay, closed lther and okay but both open and there it was. Lay down and gone in about 3 minutes. Called neuro and he was at loss to offer explaination other then quick short circuit. Anyone else have this happen quickly and then be gone???? First time ever had eye problem and pretty scary. New respect for those who have lived with and endured optic neuritis and other MS eye problems. This disease is a bummer!!!
I am close to you, have had this for 21yrs. Ive had this same double vision thing happen to me a lot over the years. Has never stuck, thank goodness.
Was always told was just an MS thing, so I always just chalked it up to that and moved on. I still get the double vision now and then and still get told just an MS thing. Am told by my neuro and optho. Sorry your going thru this, but know that your not alone in this.
