Vision with PD Patients

Vision with PD patient

Body:

We find so few researches by Movement Disorder Specialists on the PD patients for the treatment of their difficulties with vision.

They usually leave them to the eyes specialists whom are not specialised with the movement disorders.

They end up with no solution on how to treat them with proper vision.

Our eyebrow are controlled by three pairs of extrinsic eye muscles i.e eyelids, conjunctiva and lacrimal apparatus.

PD patients have imbalance of the muscles they move the eyes. Symptoms are usually aching or burning ofthe eyes, accompanied by headache and even general fatigue. However it varies from one by other and do not apply to every patient.

Some PD have poor vision on driving and it is too dangerous to walk alone too. Kindly advise.
