How I overcame Double Vision after COVID!

by Dee Makadia 05 Jun 2025 0 comments

During the pandemic, like many others, I found myself spending hours on screens, watching videos, scrolling endlessly, trying to stay connected. At first, it felt harmless. But soon, something strange started happening.

I began seeing double.
Every time I looked into the distance, my vision would split. It was crazy. Driving, reading signs, even walking outside became uncomfortable. I thought maybe I was tired, or maybe it would pass.

But it didn’t.

I saw a few specialists and tried what was suggested… but nothing really helped. That’s when I reached out to someone who truly changed things for me, Dr Dee.

After sharing my story, she explained what was going on: some of my eye muscles were overactive, others underused. I was stuck in a pattern of imbalance, worsened by long hours on my phone and very little time outdoors.

She gave me a simple set of exercises, not overwhelming, just enough to relieve the strain and retrain the muscles. She also encouraged me to make small lifestyle shifts: getting natural light, spending time off-screen, and giving my eyes time to reset.

Within weeks, I noticed a huge difference.

The double vision, once daily and constant, is now rare and manageable. And best of all? I feel empowered. I know the exercises to come back to when things flare up, and I’m finally spending more time outside and less time glued to a screen.

It wasn’t a complicated treatment plan, it was just the right plan for me.

If you’re reading this and struggling with similar symptoms, I just want to say: don’t lose hope. The right help can make all the difference.
