MemberDecember 8, 2021 at 8:54 pm in reply to: Ocular MG – Hacks, tricks, tape, etc?Here are two tricks that work for me although not particularly elegant. I wear glasses when using my computer and sometimes have double vision. Have found that I can correct it by bending the frame of glasses so they sit canted on my face. In effect I am looking out of the top of the left lens and the bottom of the right. Individual results may vary. When I am driving and bothered by double vision the trick of rolling the head all the way back and/or dipping the chin works for me. I can regain good vision with head in normal straight ahead position by rolling my eyes in a circular motion for a few seconds. Seems to loosen up the eye muscles so they can operate normally. Be sure to do this safely when driving. As I said, not elegant but works for me.
