Thank you for your reply. You have been very helpful and your time is appreciated.
Dear MsPeggy,
There are many causes of double vision and headaches and I would definitely recommend that you see an eyeMD immediately. Usually [but not always] the symptoms go away after the resolution. Its persistence for 5 days makes me think of some other conditions and I recommend an examination TODAY! The best specialists are neuro-ophthalmologists or neurologists. If you cannot get in to a doctor today, go to an urgent care or emergency room.
