I was diagnosed with exophoria back in 2015. But the Dr said I didnt need glasses cause since it was so mild.
I had two months in 2016 Where I had excruciating pain in my eyes/eye muscles. I had to live in a dark apartment for almost two months. I couldnt look at screens. It instantly hurt like crazy in the muscles behind my eyes. It was Sharp/cutting pain.
After two months I went to an Expert on exophoria and the use of prism glasses etc. he said my eyes was very bad and I needed prisms asap. It helped tremendously But after my relapse in 2019 I couldnt use them anymore. It was like my eyemuscles couldnt handle it.
So since then I have droppes the glasses and it has been all good without them. I just have to stop reading etc when I feel pain coming, But I had to do that when using glasses as well..
I habe never had eye issues Prior to getting sick in 2014 when all of a sudden I had really blurry vision.
When I Google it seems its kind of common in ME Patients?
Anyone else?
The best thing I can do for my eyes is looking around outside. I have PEM for a little over a week now and I have a blurry vision, brainfog(which I almost never have had the last few years) and low energy.
When I get tired like this it affects my eyes. So it feels lile a muscle problem..
Since getting sick I cant watch tv or iphone when I lay on the side, that messes my eyes up.
