Vibration of vision associated with movement?

For a year, I suffer from shaking in my eyes related to movement and it gets worse when the place I move is dark as it causes me to stagger right and left. I made a ring image on the head, but nothing appeared in it. They had no benefit and he referred me to the eye doctor. When I visited the eye doctor, he told me that you have a weakness in the eye muscles, and he changed the lenses for my glasses and referred me to an optometrist, where he gave me 17 sessions to strengthen the eye muscles.

Dear patient, I am so sorry for what you are going through. It sounds distressing. I assure you though that it should improve with treatment so have hope. Brain injuries and injuries to the skull around the eyes and face can really throw off your coordination and balance. Have you had any head injuries? How long has this been going on?. Have you had Nystagmus ruled out? This is eye shaking that occurs after head trauma. There may be a Neurological aspect to your condition. Vision therapy to strengthen the whole Oculomotor balance system will help. Did the 17 sessions you already had help?? You may also need to see a Neurologist if you have had any head trauma to rule out central nervous system issues. You may also want to see a Physical therapist who specializes in balance and eyes, known as a Vestibular
therapist, or your vision therapist may also be able to assist. If you get headaches or nausea when your vision is unstable, you may need to rule out true migraines or ocular migraines. NORA doctors are specially trained in all of the above issues and diagnose and treat vision and vestibular balance issues. got to www.noravisionrehab.org.
