Vision Issues

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Cincinnati, OH

I use a computer all day at work. I'm having issues with my vision. The words will look blurry or I feel like a can't get my eyes to focus. Does anyone else have this? If yes, what did you do about it? Thanks!!! Hugs!!!

I have double vision...I see 1/2 vision on top of 1 whole vision....Since I am so use to adapting anyway I can, depending on what I'm doing, I have found two things that really help......(1) "Big Vision" glassed with the light atop the corner of your glasses and shinning directly on what you are doing....(2)...In the car, the two sun visors that contain (2) types of dropdowns....One for sunlight in day time and the other at night when facing head lights....These are a must for me.....I do have expensive rx glasses with prisms and tri-focals.....But I usually wear the "Big Visions" over my rx glasses......As you know by now that I a little weird....Just another thing to prove this....:) soft hugs to all.

I to have had my eyes tested but the optician said they were fine. I get very sore,dry eyes, he told me this is due to the fact I don't fully close my eyes to sleep or blink. Since I have had Fibro I get out of focus vision and blurry episodes these always pass with a nap when it get really bad and I never drive on those days.

My optician told me to get tear drop eye drops. They don't contain additives and preservatives like leading brands. Work well with dry eyes!

My vision issues are different...I now have dry eye and as a result of that ..I had 2 eye infections..I had to have an operation on one of them..now I take fish oil..Omega's ...that fights dry eye according my Ophthalmologist.‎‎‎and I haven't had any problems for almost a year now‎

yes, I went to a new Optometrist last year, and the glassess I had on were to strong! I could not see out of them everthing looked so blurry. I know some of my meds could cause this too. But when i got the new glasses with inline bifocals I could see perfect. I need the bifocals to read, and type & look at the screen clearly. I aso got a new pair of sun glasses too.
