Usually you're born with it. Some folks who have a 'lazy eye' are sometimes prescibed a prism to try to straighten that out, but... I have also seen cases where labs have made glasses incorrectly and unintentionally put prism in the lenses because the proper measurements were not taken. Occassionally... the prescribed prism is a result of some trauma to the head... in those instances, it's a small amount, and *might* reverse itself once the muscles gain strength. Best case scenario, it was poorly made specs... best bet though is to see your Optometrist or Opthamalogist for a full & thorough examination of they eyes. Hope that helped! Cindy

How long does double vision last?

I had double vision for 4 weeks then it improved. now after 5 weeks it seems to be "gone" but will come back later in the day as I use both eyes more. this type of double vision is only when using both eyes, covering one eye gives normal vision but of course restricted due to only one eye being used. a doctor told me if the cause is a TIA (mini-stroke) then usually the double vision will go away. so the short answer is if it is going to go away then maybe 2 weeks or more. there are many causes for double vision so medical care is necessary.

What could cause distorted vision in your left eye?

If your eyesight was normal and then something happened which caused your vision to become distorted it could be the result of a knock on the head or some other injury. If you know you have not knocked your head then it may be caused by some kind of viral infection which has affected your eye muscles. If you have a headache as well as the distorted vision go to see your doctor immediately for a proper diagnosis and treatment. If you don't have a headache and your vision doesn't go back to normal in 24 hours then go and see your doctor anyway.
