I have recently noticed that I have vision problems too, and started a thread about it. There's some good information in there. Summary: see an ophthalmologist.

My problem is that my eyes don't agree on a single point to focus on from time to time.

ok ill definately look into that

im seeing a neurosurgeon in a couple days and will ask him what he thinks

not really sure why i was referred to a neurosurgeon as apposed to a neurologist but ill see how it goes

I have a visual issue that is in my brain. I will move my head from one point to another and a single visual frame will stick in my head for longer than it should as if my brain is not refreshing the info coming in quickly enough. In other words if the first thing I look at is a tree, then I look over to the road, but I STILL SEE THE TREE. Then a second later my brain picks up the fact that I'm now looking at the road.

This is not good for driving or riding my bike!

thats somewhat similar to my problem. i move my head from one point to the other and everything inbetween is a complete blur. meaning i guess it takes my brain longer to focus things in.

Yeah I've been having that for a long time now - 6 months. If you find medical advice about this, please let me know. I assume retraining the brain is all I can do. I've been walking in the woods a lot to try to stimulate my brain to see and process a lot of visual triggers (leaves, rocks, colors, trees, footing, etc.) - hoping that will help. It seems to be.

neurosurgeon told me to go to the opthamologist for my eye problems and to an ent for my dizzy problems

I think part of my dizziness was due to vision problems. Still have vision problems but not as severe. I very seldom get dizzy anymore.

Only if it is ear, nose or throat related would ENT do any good. If it is brain or vision caused dizziness that won't help!

As far as the dizziness you are having, that could be vestibular. You need to see an ENT that specializes in vestibular. I have what was described to me as a concussion of the inner ear. The little 'crystals' in the inner ear brook loose which causes the dizziness. There are excercises that help but not cured. I (when I had insurance) went to Therapy which really helped me learn to adjust to the dizziness. My concussion was 10-2005 and I still have major issues I deal with every day.

im hoping its something to do with my ears or eyes. the doctor told me if it is then its fixable but if its the brain thats messed up then thers nothing they can do. he also showed me on the mri that i have huge sinus cavities. idk if that would affect anything
