Hi, I am worried because last year I was standing and talking to my husband and got double vision (split like two different visual fields one higher than the other). I went to an optometrist and told him about it and he said one time is not too unusual an I was tired and have chronic back pain. But today I had it again for about 15 seconds. I was sitting eating lunch and felt eye pressure and my vision seemed like it split but was more blurry then last time. I have had a episode of vertigo where the room looked like it was spinning. But it seems like double vision again. What can be causing this? I had gone to a neurologist last year too for my back pain and she said I was normal and didn't have MS either because my MRI of the back would have showed it in addition to the tests she did. Can this be normal again or shall I go back and make an appoinment for an opthamologist this time? What will they do to me? Last time I needed new glasses and wear transition lenses but he didn't check my retina.
thanks,
