Last week I was a bit sick and nothing seemed to work but this week things seem to be better. Sometimes it would just be easier to be a robot and shut down the stream of consciousness, wouldn't it? Either way it's better not to accumulate too many diseases at…continue reading →

Youtube keeps suggesting videos to me and I love this one. This double vision case was not caused by long standing strabismus but is the consequence of a brain aneurysm. Notwithstanding the double vision is just the same... Take a look at this amazing testimony.continue reading →

Before, meaning my whole life, I had to chose between my left and right eye (alternate). The last five years, in a double vision situation, I would see both images but only one eye is really aimed at what I am trying to see while the other one is just…continue reading →

Today was check up time! They measured the progress in numbers. Over this one year and 8 months I've come 14 degrees of difference initially to 8 and then 4, then 3 and now finally ZERO! This means most of the times my eyes are alligned. I noticed this before…continue reading →

The intro is totally American, but what follows makes total sense. It's surprising how in Belgium this is not even common knowledge for doctors, and in America it's prime time television. What's even more surprising is that Youtube suggested this video to me. Google knows it all!continue reading →

Still struck by the sinus infection so I didn't feel like fridays session was very productive... I felt a bit feverish, but nonetheless I tried my best. It seems like my brain is adjusting quite well in order to fuse the images but the joint eye movements need more work, especially…continue reading →

After missing my previous appointment due to a sick optometrist we are back in business :) In the meantime I discovered that an everlasting toothache turns out to be a sinus infection (since the tooth in gone now).
