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. Cell-cept 1000 mg twice daily has kept my double vision symptoms at bay.

  2. I had an upper bleph surgery to open my eyes. I have a prism on my left lens of my glasses and it converges my double vision to single vision.

  3. So far, I am not having double vision or droopy eyes. However, I am experiencing blurry vision. When we finally got me on enough IVIG, I require 100 grams IVIG on two consecutive days every other week. My symptoms have improved.

  4. Using an eye patch over one eye really does help.
