I am not ruling out, in fact I think it highly likely, that cataracts are part of the problem. However, any clouding of the eye in my case is minor and would not warrant cataract surgery.

Don't forget that once you have had cataract surgery, you eyesight is restricted to one focal length, and there are many many reports of people who have problems after cataract surgery, especially with double vision.

yes, I am aware of that problem. I'm trying to avoid any treatment for cataracts and attempting to find a nutritional solution. I refuse to believe that it can't be resolved through nutrition. My own physician even told me that everything is reversable but that we just don't have all the answers yet.

I am now supplementing with chromium and having my levels monitored.

Well, just as a quick update. Mestinon has now gotten most of my symptoms under control. Even the blinking which is now reduced to a normal level or 20-30 per minute instead of the 60-90 per minute that it was.

However, even with reduced blinking, the double vision persists. But it now varies in line with how much Mestinon I have taken, and with how tired I am.

Early morning. DV annoying. After first dose of Mestinon. DV not a problem. But during the day the DV comes back as the Mestinon runs out, and at the end of the day, it can be quite a problem, depending on how busy a day I have had.

I'm sorry to hear that your having this so rough. I am glad to see your getting some relief.

I didn't get relief until a friend told me about his alternative health provide that practices nutritional balancing science. I went there after I submitted a hair analysis and was blown away. Now I'm making progress but still early in the recovery.
