What Causes Double Vision While Feeling Tired?

I just noticed a week or two ago that I have slight double vision in both eyes. So when I cover one eye or the other the vision in the non-covered eye is double. But it s double vertically, not horizontally. Seems to be worse at night or when I m tired. Vision is NOT blurry otherwise.

Hello,

Visual acuity in both eyes to be noted and muscular movement of all muscles be noted. You can detect diplopia in both eyes if one eye is closed cover test be done and if euphoria it can be detected if the age below 9 years. The orthoptic exercise can help squint detected can be due to muscular paralysis but if age is above 9 years then it can be a cosmetic correction.


Next time before colonoscopy takes prophylactic antibiotics if you are so concerned about it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ashok Kumar Dash
