Today I was unable to stop my vision from splitting as it came on too suddenly and it took several minutes to end. As always each image was a full image as one would expect from his or her eye, yet each image was offset from the other. In this instance the image from my left eye was lower and to the left of the image from my right eye.
Often altering my focus on distant objects helps relieve the problem, but it did not seem to help today. Instead I focused on an image on a coworker's dry erase board and relaxed my eyes between bouts of trying to get the two images to merge. Another coworker came along and talked about his previous and my current eye issues. He had similar issues with the visual migraines before and his seemed to be caused by an infection or fungus in his sinus cavities. I have issues with my sinuses though I'm unsure if mine would also be the same as I have been having the eye strain and split vision issues too.
Additional Information
- My vision wanted to split earlier in the day, just after I woke as I we preparing for the day. I hadn't done much more than wake and gather my clothes. The sensation passed quickly.
- The day before I had some Oral Surgery performed to remove my #2 molar (my upper right side last tooth before my wisdom tooth). I have been prescribed 1 week's worth of Amoxicillin for infection and Lortab 7.5mg for pain. I took 1 Amoxicillin tablet around 11AM yesterday but forgot my evening dose. I have taking my morning Amoxicillin today. I have not needed to take any Lortab for pain however.
- Yesterday I ate a lot of vanilla ice cream after the oral surgery. Some pasta with olive oil and Parmesan cheese, and French bread. I had nothing today before my initial bout with my vision and before the stronger event I had a sausage biscuit and 2 bottles of water plus my Amoxicillin tablet about 1 hour prior.
