I've not had much luck explaining what I'm experiencing and thought maybe y'all could help me to describe to my Dr my Wonky eyes!
Wonky is also a word I use to describe my vision. I have not had double vision. Mine is blurry with peripheral distortion that causes my balance to be affected. I also have depth perception issues which causes me to have problems determining if the ground is level, uphill, downhill, or a step. My eyelids feel heavy but not so much droopy. Hoping your doctor visit goes well!

I have had a very hard time explaining. Other than the double vision, one way I’ve tried to explain it is that print or words can appear smudged, like water was spilled On the paper.
I told my Dr I am tired of the double vision and looking like I've had a stroke. There has to be I something i can take or do. can take to help. She prescribed Pyridostigmine and it took a couple years to get the dosage. I still have double vision and droopy eye but only when I'm stressed. Hope this helped
I told my optho that it was like my optic nerve shut down and I couldn’t see. She thought I was nuts until my antibody test came back.
