Hi,
I am a 35 year old healthy female. Beginning in September 2009 I had an episode of double vision (lasting about 10 seconds). I have no other symptoms other than the double vision. Since then I've had this occur about once a month and then over the Christmas holidays about twice a day for five days. When I cover either eye it goes away and lasts only about ten seconds. Returning after the holidays, it stopped occuring as regularly although I have had one or two episodes since Christmas (when guests visited from out of town). It seems to occur at times of stress and/or when I haven't been sleeping well or had a few drinks. I saw an ophthalmologist, a neuro-ophthalmologist, had blood work done to test thyroid, etc. as well as a CT and brain/neck MRI. All checked out normal. Could this really be chalked up to stress and can I stop panicking about this? It has caused me so much stress I'm beginning to now suffer signs of extremely high anxiety and it is greatly effecting my quality of life.
