I have had double vision for 3 weeks following a sinus infection. Double vision is in both eyes at about 3 feet away.I am not diabetic. I have been to an Opthamologist & a ENT. Both said I am ok. I had an MRI w contrast & that is ok. My vision is slowing getting better. Thank you
Hello It seems from the history that you are having double vision. Double vision needs evaluation to find out the underlying cause. The first thing to be done is to note whether it is uniocular or binocular. Uniocular diplopia is present even with one eye being kept open and binouclar diplopia is present only with both eyes being open. Uniocular diplopia is caused by problems within the eye and binocular diplopia is caused by problems in the extra ocualr muscles. The binocular diplopia caused by problems in the extraocualr muscles is caused by paresis or paralysis of the extra ocualr muscles and requires evaluation to find out the cause for paresis or paralysis. Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
