Interesting Rachel, cause mine said PD can affect vision, specifically referring to my blurred vision. He explained that with PD some of the "signals" coming form the brain that tell the eyes to focus together get scrambled. He said Prism glasses would fix that https://www.neurovisualflorida.com/blog/eye-car...
Thanks for your question. Are you having problems with your eyes or vision? I have easily blurred vision after I've been
reading for a short while that also
blurs my regular/long vision for quite a while. I also have to close one eye (I close one eye and go back and forth between my eyes because using both eyes makes my vision worse). Reading glasses help, but I I think PD is affecting the muscles that help the eyes focus. My ophthalmologist insists that PD doesn't affect the eyes!? I don't know if that's a common issue for all eye Drs, but I'll find out: I'm changing Doctors!
I have double vision and slurred eyesight. So i think Parkinson affects vision
My glasses prescription has changed each year for the last 3 years. I was diagnosed in 2018, so it took a while to affect my eyesight. I see shadows a lot more frequently in the past 6 months. I keep thinking it's our cat!
