What Causes The Feeling Of Tightness Of Eyeballs And Double Vision?
Earlier this evening, after looking up from my iPad (didnt use very long, probably 15 minutes), both my eyeballs felt very tight. My vision becomes sort of off focus & kind of double, I supposed. I tried looking from 1 eye at a time and it was slightly better. But when I opened both the vision becomes very "funny"in an uuncomfortable way. Then I tried massaging my eyeballs quite hard for a few minutes. Then my vision came back normal.
what is the cause of this? Is this related to my migraine? I just had thorough eye exam a few months ago, just cause I turned 40 so I thought it's a good time to start annually.
