Eye movement

My eyes involuntarily move when I am concentrating and its a only a second or two and of course my eyes are not focused so all I see is light.  It does it a lot.  Some times they move side to side but I don't realize it. I am 44 y\o cauasian with some native Americas.  I have fibromyalgia, leaky vavles, anemia, kidney filtration has slowed down, degenerative arthritis, GERD, migraines, sinus problems, no gall bladder. My eye sight the past three years has changed.  In addition, I am perimenopausal.

You do need to see an eye MD ophthalmologist. Please ask one of your physicians to refer you soon. If you do not wear glasses reading glasses are likely needed. If you do wear glasses you may need bifocals. Also need to be sure the movements are not related to your health problems. JCH MD

Sorry, that's a handful of problems. You need to see an ophthalmologist to have a complete exam. At age 44 you would expect to need reading glasses or if your are myopic/astigmatism/farsighted to start to need bifocals. The involuntary eye movements especially if new need evaluated.  Your physicians can refer you to an ophthalmologist.
