PSP stands for. Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. My eyes are very sensitive to light and I have difficulty looking up and down. My balance is bad.

I too have dry eyes...I use Systane eye drops morning and night. The Dr. said the normal person blinks 16-18 times per minute, whereas a person with Parkinson's my only blink 3=5 times per minute.

I have trouble with my eyes too. I asked several doctors about it, but didn’t get any answers. Thank you.

I don’t think I am suffering from double vision. It is becoming more difficult to move my eyes up and down. They become stalled like my walking.
