Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for the query.

As per your clinical history it appears that you are having Cervico-ocular (Neck -Eye) dis coordination .

If I were your treating doctor, I would advice you Aceclofenac + thiococlchicide combination twice daily after meal & Neck relaxation exercise .

Avoid long working hour in front of computer & improper position of neck during sleep.

Investigation needed Xray neck AP & lateral view .

You can discuss this with your treating doctor.

Hope this information helpful to you .If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
Thanks.
