Sometimes it would just slip away in an instant and my eyes would be closed again. I had too keep my eyes closed at the stoplights to try to rest them. The effort of trying to keep them open actually made me nauseous. The drive was agony and by the time I got home I just fell into bed and slept for 2 hours.
Has anyone ever had this problem before?!? |
Rest is the key with a good pair of sun glasses. Try getting a stick on eye patch and wear it whe you can to rest the eye. Is one eye worse than the other.... I get double vision with very tired eyes. If I do not rest and am rundown I have serious vision issues due to MG. How do you find light... I like things dimmer more relaxed on the eyes even in the home. Snow is the worst when driving and headlights at night on a bad day cause problems. Try resting one eye at a time. It works for me. I get totaly upset when my eyes are not working causes stress and only makes it harded to get back on track.Double vision lots. If I close my eyes for a rest it makkes it harder to get the single vision. Head tiliting at times is helpful to make it home.If you cant pull out of the double vision, cover one eye and it will be single. All this is very scary, I have had this off and on for twenty years. Rest those eyes, and get rid of stress, or you may have an illness comeing on. Take Care hope this help....Mother of three thought only I felt this. Winter to Summer also pose problems...Would liike to learn more .....Thanks Lori
