Hello! Im 21/f and I noticed I have had a lazy eye for the past month and a half. I never had this as a kid. Its not very noticeable, but one eye is not moving as fast as the other. What is the cause of this? I have had headaches recently, could this be from it? Should I not even worry about it, seemingly since its not that noticeable?

Sorry, I've only just seen this question, it came up on a search.

Any significant change in vision, eye movement or pupil size over a period of weeks should be reported so it can be medically assessed.

There are lots of possible causes, especially in conjunction with headaches, and while most of them may not be terribly serious and many may be temporary, there remain some outside possibilites which could require further investigation or treatment.

Without more data I couldn't be more precise, but I'd be looking to see if there was any evidence of interference with the blood supply to an eye muscle, for a start.
