Default Unknown eye problem

Hello. My name is Tim. I am 22 years old, and I am having a problem with my eyes. I was taking the medicine Invega for my Bipolar disorder, but it made me very stiff and restless, so the doctor prescribed the anti side-effect medicine Artane, which immediately caused blurry vision. I was on both these medicines for 6 months. I have been off of these medicines for 3 months now, and I am still experiencing constant oscillating vision, where everything subtly moves and shakes. I am a college student, and I'm having an incredibly hard time reading, focusing, and concentrating. I feel like my life is shattered. I saw a neuropthamologist, and she noticed the shaking when I looked to the Left, Right, and Up, but she did not notice anything when I looked straight ahead. There is nothing wrong with my lens or my optical nerve, so I feel the problem must be with the muscles behind or in front of my eyes. The neropthamologist is scheduling a brain MRI and looking into possible medications to correct my problem, but she said the medication is not even proven to work and is very sedative. Does anyone know what happened to my eyes and how is could be corrected? Any help, ideas, suggestions, or geuses would be greatly appreciated. Please help. Thank you.
