Posted on Fri, 15 Sep 2017
Question: It's my 5th day and my left eye are killing me!
I did tried to put my palm over one eye and then the other. I Can see with both eyes!
BUT When i do put my palm over my right eye, and look with the left, i would slowly try to take my hand away, but then i feel like the left are falling out to the left side?

try to do it with palm over left eye and see with the right, then i see clearly. BUT When i do take my palm off the left eye, it Can see but the right eye would still be dominating... This wasn't the case 5 days ago...

It started When i was sitting and moving my eyes around (ocd like), Which i have never done so i dont know Why i did it...

Should i be worried?

Brief Answer:
Possible eye strain due to uncorrected eye power

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. It is quite apparent that you are suffering from eye strain. The underlying cause needs to be determined. There is a possibility that there is uncorrected eye power which needs to be checked and corrected. It is possible that the power in one eye is more than that of the other and that could be responsible for the dominance of one eye in vision.

I would insist you to visit an ophthalmologist, get get a refraction done and to get your eyes checked.

Let me know if I could help further.

Thank you for the great answer.
It's like my right eye is surely more dominant than the left, just as you said.
Though that was not the case a week ago, and that is annoying as hell

I will make an appointment. Thanks! !
