Could Double Vision Be Due To Tumour In Brain?

My husband had a stroke on Dec. 30, 2014. He has been in a nursing home for 4 month and has regained about 60 percent use of his left leg and 35 percent of his left arm and hand. He will be headed home in 3 weeks. He has battled thyroid cancer for 10 years. Currently he has a 6 cm tumor on his right kidney, 3 cm tumor on his left kidney which are thyroid cancer. Recently he has developed a spot on his pelvic bone. He has had numerous surgeries on his neck to remove thyroid cancer tumors. He is 63 and 2 night ago he started to see double vision. We are waiting for the ctscan results. He had a few nodes on his brain when they took the scan on Dec. 30. Could this double vision be from a tumor or medication is my questions. He take oxy, pain patches and conzipan. I m just interested in your thought,
