Vision (Looks Like Old Film)

[Darlene]

you ever watch an old tv film and it flickers... do u ever see that in your vision? wonder if its from starring at the computer day after day.

I have really odd vision too and sometimes I have issues like this. We actually found out that because of the Dysautonomia I developed Diplopia (double vision) and that the flicker was my eyes refocusing. I wear glasses now that help a bit but there's really not much they can do for it. I still have 20/20 vision so the eye doctor didn't catch it during regular exams. There's a special test they do to see if that's the cause. If the computer's the problem though you should invest in some anti-glare glasses. They really help (as I used to work almost exclusively on a computer for hours on end I can tell ya, it makes a big difference!) But definitely look into the Diplopia. A good thing to try is unfocusing your eyes while looking at something, if it splits in 2 you've prob. got double vision. Mine normally doesn't split unless I'm having a particularly bad day or I'm really exhausted. Otherwise things just look a little grainy and when I go from looking up close to far away it takes my eyes a minute to adjust to the change. Good luck!

I have movement in my vision. I can really tell if I look at something with a loud pattern....it will get waves of movement. I have been told it is a brain processing thing, plus the eyes not focusing well. It can be frustrating.
