double vision one above other

Hey well i have been having problems with my eyes lately, when i look at an object eg a computer screen the top of the frame has a ghostly image of it on top.
As far as i know this starte happening to me after i started wearing glasses because i spend too much time on the computer.

I really want to know if this is temoporary and if its something i should see a doctor about.

Thx for reading and your help.

It could be your glasses prescription is incorrect or has changed. It could be an optical aberration from the glasses. Medically it could be a problem with the lens of the eye or the cornea.

I suggest you see an ophthalmologist (Eye MD physician) to re-evaluate this.  Remember that computer use will not DAMAGE the eye but it can certainly TIRE the eye.

Thanks for your advice but the problem doesnt only happen when im wearing glasses it also happens when im not wearing them and somethimes there is nothing wrong. And when i cover one eye there is nothing wrong either. So i am wondering if it could be a problem with the lens that its not directing light into the cornea properly

Medically it could be a problem with the lens of the eye or the cornea.  Dislocation of the lens is very unusual. Occurs in Marfan's Syndrome commonly and sometimes with trauma.
