Can PSVT Affect The Movement Of Eye Lids?

My right eye seems like it s not opening up as widely. I m wondering if this condition may have anything to do with a diagnosis of psvt and the medication cardiziem cd prescribed. I m wondering if an episode of the heart may have been a very mild stroke affecting the eye.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic


A stroke can sometimes have minimal symptoms so it can be considered. If it is the case then you need treatment to control risk factors such as blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol.

Abnormal heart rhythms can increase the risk of stroke but would not directly affect the eye.

I hope this helps
