Vision

Anyone feel like they constantly have one eye stronger than the other?

It feels weird but it feels like there is something wrong with my eyes

:frowning:

Hi matey,

Yes me and no doubt miss moss too as we share the same symptoms. My eyes are always off xxx

I don’t feel like one eye is stronger but I defo feel my vision is not right, sometimes I almost feel like the majority of the dizziness comes from my eyesight if that makes sense and my vision is def blurry at times…it’s weird, sometimes I just feel my vision is really off but I can’t pinpoint exactly what is wrong, confusing bloody condition!!!

Aaahh its so annoying!!

I also get shimmering!! Lights are the worst!! Shimmering is constant!!

Rob - do you mean like a white halo around things? That’s what I get, I look at someones face for example and it has a halo around it?!

I get tv static/visual snow over everything. It’s much worse in darker/dimmer lighting. So frustrating! Also just started to get rocking vision where things shift side to side. What shimmering do u get? Xx

Cant really explain it. Its like beams of light coming from the light. Lights are sparkling

I am sensitive to light, especially during the really bad attacks. I remember wearing sunglasses a lot at the beginning. Sometimes I will randomly feel my eyes are more sensitive and like Lizzie I do feel that my eyes are blurry or off but not sure how or why. It’s as though they de-focus to block out the dizziness. I don’t feel there is anything actually wrong with my sight though. Like if I had an eye test I am sure it would be fine so it’s pretty hard to define. I guess it’s the way the brain is receiving the signals that is off x

I dont understand why i get mav symptoms when im not feeling bad. I have some of these symptoms 24/7

Hi all, that’s what I find hard too rob, really my dizziness is getting a lot better but the eyes and the tingling can be pretty much constant too - actually I may ask dr s about this when I see him next - does anyone know? X

So jealous u are all improving dizziness wise! I’m not at all. It’s crap! That visual thing sounds really frustrating! I am beginning to realise that migraine can pretty much do anything and everything!!! Not fun. I have pins and needles over my whole leg today! Grrr. Right off to the shops, going to be a dizziness extravaganza but I’m bloody sick of this thing stopping me living so I’m fighting on!!! Xxxx

My eyes have trouble looking at something for a long time. They want to jump off the target.

I took the wife for a meal and theatre for her birthday the other day. I nearly had to leave i was in a bad way!!

Hey guys n gals,

I think I mentioned before- I most definately get the 1 eye feels stronger than the other- and the reason I know it’s not my actual eyesight and is my brain- is because a. they swap! and b. I’ve had my eyes tested by about 12 different opticians and in the beginning when I got hit with the big vertigo attack, I went to Moorfields Eye Hospital as an emergency patient and they did every test under the sun to check it wasn’t a visual issue going on as well.

I’m crap with the theatre too Rob- I went to see a comedian the other night in Leics sq… a dark room, staring at 1 bloke who is lit up- within about 15mins, I had him in double vision, and weird shimmers going on. Stuck with it, but felt like crap after. Not very funny :slight_smile:

What did you see @ the theatre?

Hey missmoss!!

Went to see jersey boys!! I’m not normally a lover of the theatre but it was quality!! Definitely recommend it!! Its not MAV friendly though. :frowning:

What comedian did you see?

Hey you two :slight_smile:

Same with me! Can’t focus on anything .

Hey Anna :smiley:

It feels like my eyes arnt working together!! So annoying!!

I have forgotten what its like to be normal :frowning:

Sounds good!

Tell you what I don’t recommend for MAVers… STOMP!! 1.5hrs of banging of dustbin lids, lol

I went to see Jerry Sadowitz… Not everyones cuppa tea- a lot of people walked out. I advise you not to google him!
