Default brain zaps

I have been having brain zaps here lately that are bothering me.

I have had very light brain zaps before my MS diagnosis and before any of the medications I am on now.

Can brain zaps be strictly MS related? I have read going off of an anti depressant can cause these zaps, but my meds have not changed at all. I am on Lexapro and have been on it for several months.

When I get a zap it affects my eyes. If I am looking at the TV screen my eyes move so that I have to look back at what I was looking at.

Any ideas?
