Does Anything Help Your Double Vision And/or Droopy Eyes?

Do you have Myasthenia gravis symptoms of diplopia (double vision) or ptosis (drooping eye)?

Has anything helped you? Medication, surgery, tape, glasses, contacts, eye drops, etc.?

  1. I bought some eye patches from Amazon when I first had double vision. I was prescribed Prednisone and I'm still on 20mg a day and it has never returned. I also take Mestinon but that is hard on my stomach. I've had MG for 3 years now (gMG for 2).

    1. Rest, prism eyeglasses

      1. I have a regular pair of glasses and a pair that has prisms because of the double vision

        1. I have diplopia and prism in my glasses have helped me.
