What Causes Recurring Disturbance And 3D Effects In Vision?
Hi, I have experience a weird change in vision lately. Last week, while a bit sleep deprived, I was working on writing a manuscript (typing on the computer). I kept seeing words on the screen appear in 3D as if they were coming out of the screen. I thought maybe it had to do with sleep deprivation and I just needed to rest, but I had the same phenomenon occur today while very well rested. I went to a local restaurant where they write daily options on a chalk board. Some of the words looked again like the were in a different plane than the rest. I tried to research this online, but found no reliable info. Help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
First of all, it's sad to know what you had been going through lately.
Based on the history you have shared, you need to get an ophthalmologist review and get slit lamp examination of the fundus, as well as visual acuity, done.
You also need to increase the time for rest in between work and keep diversion from the screen from time to time by keeping artificial or indoor plants or sceneries around you as diversion of concentration and eye rest is mandatory in such conditions.
Taking supplements for calcium D3 B12 and folic acid may be helpful.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
