Hi. Sorry, but what is MG?
The last time I read a book was 10 years ago. A few days ago, I tried to read but after only two pages lightning bolts of pain were shooting through my eye and all through back of my head.

Doctors just shrug when I go to them. I don't even know where to turn other than to find what info I can online.

I was at optomitrist on Monday, I have stick on prism right eye to help DV. Problem is somedays I am worse than others. She suggested patching or frosting one lens during these times and alternating so as not to overwork one set of muscles more than the other. A real pain in the whatsit but if it works I will be first in line.

I get it real bad with reading (probably how I just set off my latest eye episode :( ). It depends though, I wasn't even reading very heavily and it strained my eyes. Yet a month or two ago I was reading a LOT more and I was perfectly fine. Maybe it all added up.



PS - thanks for posting that info/link about the scotch tape. Going to try that! :D

I would really like to know if anyone else is dealing with this problem, I want to go back to college but have no I idea how I am going able to read and study. Thanks!
