#12. Blurred or Double Vision: Visual Disturbances After a Concussion
Blurred or double vision is a common visual disturbance experienced after a concussion. The injury can affect the brain’s ability to process visual information or control the muscles that coordinate eye movements. This can result in difficulty focusing, tracking objects, or perceiving depth. (11)
It’s important to avoid activities that require precise vision or depth perception, such as driving or playing sports, until the visual disturbances have resolved. Wearing an eye patch can help alleviate double vision in some cases. If blurred or double vision persists or worsens, consult an eye care professional or a medical doctor for further evaluation and guidance.
