Any advice for Double Vision caused by having Dry Eyes?

Posted by lemans77 @lemans77, Sep 28 2:18pm

I have been using Xiidra for a while, it doesn't seem to do much. I have recently begun to experience double-vision because if the dry eye. I have tried many other drops, gels, heat, plugs and nothing helps. Ideas?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Eye Conditions Support Group.

I am doing physical therapy for my eyes/brain and coordination. No results yet but maybe could hep you.

Get checked out for Myastenia Gravis. I have fuchs dystrophy and dry eye along with other eye problems but it’s the MG that causes my double vision a lot of the time

Myastenia Gravis was one of the first things I was tested for and it was negative. I have seen 2 opthamologists so far and neither provided me with any ideas for improvement. I take Xiidra and have tried many extra tears and drops with no relief. But thank you for the suggestion, this group is very helpful.
