Eyes cross

Why do my eyes cross and feel like they are stuck a few seconds?

If it only for a few seconds that is certainly much better than a permanant or longer intermittant problem.  This could be something as simple as eye strain or needing glasses or some type of intermittant eye muscle spasm (rare) or something a little more complex.  My advise is to see an ophthalmologist for a very complete exam.  Hopefully everything will turn out OK.
