Eyes - Vertical Heterophoria Binocular Vision Issues

So someone was talking about vision issues in one of the FB Lyme groups.

I mentioned that I experience anascoria where one pupil gets larger than the other and how it feels like one eye is look up while the other eye is looking down when that happens.

Someone mentioned Vertical Heterophoria and posted the following video.

This was my first time hearing about this condition so I haven't researched it much or pursued anything yet.

It might not apply for me because I have the issues with my pupils but thought I'd mention it because it could apply to some who experience things like dizziness, headaches, trouble reading, neck pain and even panic attacks. (All were mentioned in the video.)


They had another video where a person can test this at home a bit:
