Sir, dont wear my glasses for up close 18 inches can see from computer or reading I remove them, and wear only for distance. 29 inches unclear vision.
Did you ever figure out what happened?? I am having the same problems. I am 18 years old and also have migraines but I haven't had a bad on in a while. I get headache's daily, sometimes bad but sometimes very dull. Lately, my vision has been getting worse (really blurry, and sometimes doubling) but the other day I was taking a practical exam, looking in a microscope and when I would quit looking at the microscope my eyes kept crossing and took about 30 seconds to focus back. After I left class, my eyes still did that randomly for about 2 to 3 hours. I don't know what is going on but I think I should go to the doctor soon!
I went to see my PCP and she is sending me to a neurologist. These doctors have never heard of this before (I took the 25 pp who responded that this happened to so she did not think I was crazy) they are not aware of what steps to take, but this will be the first one for me to find out. I think the scary part is that no one can say " you're lacking in a vitamin, or you need to do this" and without this that is what is concerning. Being that you are so young is concerning to me, as this just started for me and I am 56. My doctor asked me and I will ask you, were you able to see clearly or was the vision black when crossing. I told her it was not for me cause it was as if I was purposly crossing my eyes. Mine do not come with pain just a slight pressure linging butnot painful. I dont have any pain with my occular migrianes either. when I was in my 30 / 40"s I use to get painful migrianes when light hit my eyes I would have to go home to sleep in a dark room or wear sunglasses all day long. I try to take vitamins and suppliments and when I have pain I take feverfew more so than the asprins it helps the same way. I try to stay clear of manmade medicine.
I will keep you on my mind and lift you up in prayer young one!

The same thing happened to me this morning. I was talking to my husband, I turned my head slightly to look at the TV thru the corner of my eyes & all of a sudden my eyes were crossed! It lasted 30 sec., no pain, no blurry vision afterward. I am near sighted, and 50 yrs old. I just hope it doesn't happen again, it was very frightening.
I went to see a Nuerologist who was suggested by my PCP when i went to see her. He suggested next time this happens to put a hand over each eye and describe what you can see, ecord the time by counting 1 mississippi, 2 mississippi etc. or if someone is near what are they seeing your eyes are doing and then i am to call him. He said it is not associated with a disease in the brian as it would be constant, it could be associated with stress or a painless form of migraine. Because I did not record anything when it happened (cause it scared the crap out of me) he can only assume but is very interested in helping me. Hope this helps for you to make a report and let your PCP know.
I will keep a record, it hasn't happened since, and I just hope it never does. I didn't have any headache before, during, or after the incident. Hope you are doing well, and thanks for your quick response. Theresa :)
