Guide To The Symptoms Of Myasthenia Gravis

Double Vision

Double vision may be a symptom of myasthenia gravis. In order for an individual to see an image clearly, numerous parts of the vision have to work in tandem smoothly to complete the complicated process. The muscles around the eye are responsible for coordinating their movement and aligning them together perfectly. When the muscle strength differs in both eyes, they cannot move in sync with each other. An individual with healthy vision will see a clear object in front of them because the eyes are correctly aligned and can perceive the object in the exact same location as each other. Myasthenia gravis causes the nerves to be unable to send impulses to the muscles that control the movement of the eyes, resulting in them losing sync with each other. Both of the patient's eyes then perceive the location of an object at a different place than the other. Double vision occurs with this because the brain interprets this misaligned visual information from both eyes, causing the patient to see two of the object instead of one.
