what does your double vision look like?

There is a down side to a large monitor at work.

It is easier to see when you are on the net and not working

Back to the lab for me

lucky me then! I am allowed to go on the internet unlimited at work we use pcs in a learning center at work and if my client is working unsupported on a pc then I am allowed to do what I want !
I love my job

I have unlimetd use of the net, provided the sites I visit meet certain criterea.

This site used to be blocked because of the filth the spammers post. It did remove the block when I explained the nature of the site and the filth was regularly removed by John and now me.

I get halos with multiple images around the circumference, oddly enough before seeing his post I was trying to mimic the image whilst on my way home tonight by moving my phone camera in circles and taking pictures of the taillights of the cars in front (no, I wasn't driving.) I managed to get fairly representative triangular halos but no round ones. Has anyone managed to find or create an image representative of their vision?

i was gonna do a photoshop of what vision is like in my right eye - but have yet to do it, to lazy, ill do it at some point.

This web Site KC Vision has been refered to by many people here.

To me the representation is crude but that is compared to what my KC is like.

It may well be a truer reflection of what others see.

My halos dont look like the ones on the KCVision site, I see a light that is blury with a circle joined onto it with what looks like spokes inside it. I will try and recreate it.
My ghosting is a duplicate of the image directly below the oringinal image so when i read a book I see every line repeated twice!
Night time vision without my glasses on is amazing and yet disturbing! i do wonder what everyone else sees! I have had the halos and problem with glare for a while, before KC was diagnosed. The ghosting is a recent thing and the hardest thing for me to cope with because I love reading.

I was trying to explain this ghosting effect to my boss last year, as we changed to smaller lab numbers which I was struggling with. His response was that if that was the case the size would not make much difference and the old favourite 'could they not give me some special glasses for work. My reply of course 'if they could I'd be wearing them!'

Oh yes, the special glasses that those ignoramouses think we can't be bothered to get! I know the sort!!
Yes, we love to struggle on a daily basis, seeing images at all angles, halos, starbursts etc and simply are too lazy/awkward to go and get the glasses!

I get ghosting of lights. Driving in the dark is a nightmare which I rarely do.I see 5 sets of car lights diagonally to my left, so it looks as though cars are coming towards me down the middle of the road. I'm not sure which set of lights are the right ones so I have been known to swerve in to the side of the road to avoid on coming traffic, especially buses because I dont know how close I am to them.
I cope okay on dual carraigeways because I drive at the kerb side, and the on coming traffic is usually too far to my right to bother me.
Traffic light are just coloured mishapen shapes, but not usually ghost images. Orange street light are seen in multiple images.
I've tried yellow night vision glasses. They reduce the glare a bit, but don't solve the ghosting for me.
Everybody is different.

Forgot to mention that my KC vision pulses with my heart rate...does anyone else get this?

p.s. Today I found myself concentrating more on my visual defects than on a presentation at work. I've always subconsciously blocked them out, now I'm consciously looking for them
