If it's on your mind and it has to do with multiple sclerosis in any way, post it here.

Vision problem

Post by David1949 »

In the past year I've noticed that when I look at a series of horizontal lines, stacked one above the other, they seem to vibrate. Sometimes this occurs with written text. If I close either eye the vibration stops. But when I open both eyes it starts. To me that sounds like a problem with the coordination of the eyes which may be due to MS. I asked my opthalmologist about it but he didn't have any idea. So I decided to ask the people with more MS experience than anyone else... all of you.
Does this sound like an MS problem? Have any of you had the same experience?

I have developed this in the last year.
If I also close one eye it seems to stop as well.
I have obvious nystagmus in my right eye now though caused by vertigo relapse.

I experience the same thing on occasions. I would like to know whether others experience the same thing..

The problem comes with the decision of weighing the unknown with the unknown.

You people from the distant past got lucky, I went blind in both eyes for a few months when I first got MS. Worry about a lesion on the back of your eye, cause one took out my right eye forever. Not next week lol forever legally blind. You are all very lucky. "I see a dot on the horizon" "Oh yeah, I can see nothing" Optic issues are a part of MS, and anyone who never has to face it is extremely lucky.
