my husband was sitting at dinner tonight and all of a sudden his vision got blurry in both eyes and he saw 3 TV's on the wall. His eyes would track and follow my finger - but he didn't think they were. Felt as if he had no control of his vision for almost 5 minutes
Hi you have not mentioned the age but it might be a warning sign for you. this is visual transient ischaemic attack(VTIA) which occurs mainly because of some blockage in cerebrovascular system mainly posterior vertebro-basilar part. It occurs for seconds to hours. you need to see a neurophysician and get a full body checkup done including BP, diabetes, a high cholesterol level and/or systemic hypercoagulable disease.subsequent attacks may lead to TIA, complete vision loss or heart attack
Hello. The blurring of vision and the temporary incoherence is a little too suspicious. Please consult a neurophysician or a neurosurgeon at the earliest. This could be a simple tiredness, early manifestation of a cervical spinal problem or a early signs of a less blood supply to the brain. Immediate referral to a competent doctor is needed.
