Hi, I was told today by a doctor examining my eyes that I don't have

my peripheral vision. It is sort of looking through binoculars all

the time.

Anyone have ACM and Peripheral Vision-Loss?

I am going to try to get into see my opthamalogist for to look at my

eyes.

I also get double vision and nystagumus.

Anyone have any suggestions if this relates to ACM?

OK. Here's where my response starts....................

Yes, before decompression surgery, I would actually LOSE my

peripheral vision for periods of time. Usually I didn't notice it,

but I had several occasions where it happened when I was driving, on

a curvy road on hill no less. I noticed it then, believe me. After

surgery, I haven't had this problem.

As for double vision, I have been able to make my vision go double

volutarily for as long as I remember, and get double vision whenever

my eyes feel like it. I am currently doing eye exercises to help with

the double vision. I had some nystagumus before decompression, but

noone has seen it since.

Yes, these can be, and often are, symptoms of/related to ACM.
