Diplopia
Description
Diplopia, commonly known as double vision or "seeing double," occurs when you see two images of a single object instead of one clear picture. This condition can affect people of any age and often goes by other names such as double eyesight, overlapping vision, or vision ghosting. Double vision can happen in one eye (monocular diplopia) or both eyes (binocular diplopia), and it may appear as side-by-side, stacked, or diagonal images. People experiencing diplopia may find daily tasks like reading, driving, or working challenging and even unsafe. Some of the most common causes include eye muscle imbalance (strabismus), cataracts, nerve issues, dry eyes, or injury. If you suddenly notice double vision or persistent symptoms, it’s important to get medical attention quickly, as diplopia is often a sign of an underlying eye or health problem. For those seeking advanced diagnosis or treatment, including corrective strabismus surgery, South Korea is recognized internationally for its cutting-edge eye care and competitive pricing for medical tourists.
