My eyes keep shaking back and forth help ?!


Question: My eyes keep shaking back and forth help ?
My eyes keep shaking back and forth and it feels like the inside of my head is shaking, almost like my brain. Now i know this sounds weird but thats what it feels like. It also looks like things are shaking back and forth. I have done some research and there is some posting on the internet about it but it seems like everyone who has it has anxiety/ social phobia, but i do not have any of those i am a very social person. I am 15 years old im not on drugs, i have drank before except that was only at the occasional party. I did break my collarbone and was put on vikatan for that but have been off that for a couple of weeks now. It does come with minor head aches too. if you know anything it would be very helpful

If you've always had this condition, it is called nystagmus. If you've suddenly acquired this defect and the eye shakes continuously or most of the time, the cause is usually eye trauma, disease or drugs-legal or illegal. If your eye only shake occasionally for a few seconds and clears up, this happens to many people and can be caused by eye strain or anxiety. No matter what the cause or duration, you ought to schedule a comprehensive eye exam with an ophthalmologist or optometrist.

Everyone should have a comprehensive dilated eye exam every few years. Most of us don't see an Ophthalmologist or optometrist until we have a real problem, which might have been prevented or minimized if we had regular exams.

I have this thing called superior oblique myokymia.

It's when a nerve in your eye has spasms and causes your vision to shake. I'm 15, too. And it happens to me a lot when I'm really tired.

Was your eye physically shaking? Or just your vision?



This is most likely to be nystagmus.


Good luck
