Keep going back to the Doctor, or go to another Doctor
Until you get an answer that you feel comfortable and
satisfied with. My eyes use to twitch a lot from stress.
I look foward to the time when this scripture will be
fulfilled. Isaiah 33:24. Pleas read when you have a moment.
" And soon no resident will say I am sick".

Have your Blood Sugar Levels Checked...It Can Be That You Are Diabetic...
Or If You Have Bad Sinus (Forehead) It can Also be that...
Lastly See Your Doctor About The Medicine You Taking...It could Be A Side Effect Or Dosage Might Not Be Right...Maybe To Much Or To Little....

You need to start investigating this problem by asking the doctor who gave you the tropol whether these side effects can be caused by the drug.

If not, make an appointment with an opthamologist.

i think i have the same problem you do. my eyes go in and out of focus very easily and if i'm doing somthing tedious i really have to concentrate. do you have a feeling of a slight burn, or a slight dryness like i do? I think my problems come from being at the computer too much and being a welder and looking at bright lights all the time.

It could be stress, but look up on your computer the side effects of your medication or ask your doctor. This could be an allergic reaction to something including the medication. Don't wait, call the doctor or look up the drug now.

HELP AND ADVISE
This article might help you out if your eyes CT Scan is clear:

Considerations Return to top

Changes in vision, blurriness, blind spots, halos around lights, or dimness of vision should always be evaluated by a medical professional. Such changes may represent an eye disease, aging, eye injury, or a condition like diabetes that affects many organs in your body.

Whatever the cause, vision changes should never be ignored. They can get worse and significantly impact the quality of your life. Professional help is always necessary. As you determine which professional to see, the following descriptions may help:

* Opticians dispense glasses and do not diagnose eye problems.
* Optometrists perform eye exams and may diagnose eye problems. They prescribe glasses and contact lenses. In some states they prescribe eye drops to treat diseases.
* Ophthalmologists are physicians who diagnose and treat diseases that affect the eyes. These doctors may also provide routine vision care services, such as prescribing glasses and contact lenses.
* Sometimes an eye problem is part of a general health problem. In these situations, your primary care provider should also be involved.

Common Causes Return to top

Vision changes and problems can be caused by many different conditions:

* Presbyopia -- difficulty focusing on objects that are close. Common in the elderly.
* Cataracts -- cloudiness over the eye's lens, causing poor nighttime vision, halos around lights, and sensitivity to glare. Daytime vision is eventually affected. Common in the elderly.
* Glaucoma -- increased pressure in the eye, causing poor night vision, blind spots, and loss of vision to either side. A major cause of blindness. Glaucoma can happen gradually or suddenly -- if sudden, it's a medical emergency.
* Diabetic retinopathy -- this complication of diabetes can lead to bleeding into the retina. Another common cause of blindness.
* Macular degeneration -- loss of central vision, blurred vision (especially while reading), distorted vision (like seeing wavy lines), and colors appearing faded. The most common cause of blindness in people over age 60.
* Eye infection, inflammation, or injury.
* Floaters -- tiny particles drifting across the eye. Although often brief and harmless, they may be a sign of retinal detachment.
* Retinal detachment -- symptoms include floaters, flashes of light across your visual field, or a sensation of a shade or curtain hanging on one side of your visual field.
* Optic neuritis -- inflammation of the optic nerve from infection or multiple sclerosis. You may have pain when you move your eye or touch it through the eyelid.
* Stroke or TIA.
* Brain tumor.
* Bleeding into the eye.
* Temporal arteritis -- inflammation of an artery in the brain that supplies blood to the optic nerve.
* Migraine headaches -- spots of light, halos, or zigzag patterns are common symptoms prior to the start of the headache. An ophthalmic migraine is when you have only visual symptoms without a headache.

Other potential causes of vision problems include fatigue, overexposure to the outdoors (temporary and reversible blurring of vision), and many medications.

Medications that can affect vision include antihistamines, anticholinergics, digitalis derivatives (temporary), some high blood pressure pills (guanethidine, reserpine, and thiazide diuretics), indomethacin, phenothiazines (like Compazine for nausea, Thorazine and Stelazine for schizophrenia), medications for malaria, ethambutol (for tuberculosis), and many others.

Home Care Return to top
Safety measures may be necessary if you have any vision problems. For example, if you have trouble seeing at night, you should not drive after dusk. It may be helpful to increase the amount of light in a room or arrange a home to remove hazards. A specialist at a low-vision clinic may be able to help.

Call your health care provider if Return to top

Call 911 if:

* You experience partial or complete blindness in one or both eyes, even if it is only temporary.
* You experience double vision, even if it is temporary.
* You have a sensation of a shade being pulled over your eyes or a curtain being drawn from the side.
* Blind spots, halos around lights, or areas of distorted vision appear suddenly.
* You have eye pain, especially if also red. A red, painful eye is a medical emergency.

"you need to consult your opthalmic surgeon IMMEDIATELY."

Sounds like you need to see an opthomologist and get your eyes checked.
