Hi- I am anIT professional and used to work on computer for long hours on daily basis. I started feeling bit discomfort with my spectacles (.5 right .75left cylindrical) and I have changed them 3times in last 6months. After that also I was not feeling comfortable but I was kind of managing with them. In last few weeks I again went and have my eye sight test as I thought my number mush have changed again. While testing I noticed that I am seeing double vision over those letters. After that, I started noticing my vision and came to know that I have double vision problem. I am seeing a light image of objects just above the actual object and I could clearly see such images while reading. I tried to test with individual eye and found that both eyes have same issue. So, my question is, what could be reason for this and what could be the possible treatment for this?
Hi.. welcome to HCM. . you could be having a cylindrical refractive error where you will be seeing shadows of the letters. you can get a cycloretinoscopy done ( checking refractive error after putting dilating drops ) as you are working with systems to know the correct power.. This is the most common reason for diplopia.. consult an ophthalmologist for evaluation. hope this information is helpful to you. Will be available for further queries. . take care. .
