Hi @avmcbellar
I’m happy to hear your balance was improved by Physical Therapy for balance …which retrains the brain through Neuroplasticity. I also had vision problems for several years from Fuchs Corneal Dystrophy and Cataracts in both eyes which was resolved in 2014 with DMEK Corneal Transplants in combination with Cataract Surgery. Within a few weeks I was very fortunate that my vision was returned to 20/20. During those years with vision problems it affected my balance too.
I had ghosting after the surgery while my eyes healed, which is similar but not as bad as double vision…but it affected me. I wish you the best possible outcome for your eye surgery and I hope it helps your balance too.

Thank you so much @njh I am glad you eliminating the ghosting and your vision was restored. Besides our ears I believe the eyes play a major role in achieving balance as well. The eyes send a signal to our brain for proper head placement. I have a difficult time in controlling head movement since my eyes can’t focus on the same image. Did you experience that also? I get the nausea associated with motion sickness. It seems when I practiced neuroplasticity( for 4 months daily) to correct my vision, my motion sickness got worse. My bad eye was slowly shifting to align to the other eye. As a result I felt it more in my ears. It has now been 5 months since I have stopped the daily eye exercise routine. My motion sickness has returned to normal i.e. prior to the start of the eye exercises.
How is your balance? Do you still require a cane for walking?
