About 7 months ago I started having these episodes where it appeared I was looking crossed eyed. Although it only lasted a few seconds and was just now and then, it concerned me. I brushed it off with I was under a lot of pressure and stress. However, over the past 7 months the episodes has gotten more frequent and lasting several seconds now. I have tried to journal when the episodes were occurring, but they are so frequent and random. I could be on my computer, watching TV, talking to someone, or just walking. They happen at all times of the day. I even took two weeks off from school (online) because I thought it was because of me being on the computer so much; and the vision issues did not change.
I'm a 33 year old female and the cross eyed vision just started suddenly 7 months ago but is more and more frequent, like it’s getting worse. There is no pain, but my eyes are tired and strained, I do get nauseated, off balance and it’s embarrassing when talking to someone and I have to close my eyes because they look funny through my cross eyed vision.
I have seen and optometrist, ophthalmologist, neurologist (MRI done), chiropractor and an endocrinologist; who all have provided clean bill of health. Chiropractor stated that I have some vertebras that are not aligned so I’ve been seeing the chiropractor for about 3 weeks, but vision still not any better. I’m desperate so I’m still seeing the chiropractor. So I took all my records to a new family care doctor in hopes he can help me… he puts me on an anxiety medication which is not helping. I do not want to come across as a hypochondriac, but I’m very worried and scared. What if this issue starts when I’m driving? The vision issue is affecting my everyday life.
I need suggestion on what to do now… HELP!
