  1. Over the last few months I have been experiencing some
    strange anomalies in my vision every time I happen to rotate
    my eyes (without rotating my head) in any direction, in
    order to watch any object, no matter its distance, located
    some 40 degrees or more off-axis. Describing such anomalies
    is somewhat difficult for me, anyway here I do my best: -
    fatiguing and difficult focusing of the off-axis objects -
    difficult and unstable combining of the right and left eye
    views of the off-axis objects -surge of slight dizziness.

    Note: no problem at all with my straight ahead viewing, and
    no need for eyeglasses.

    For a number of reasons, I suspect a collateral effect from
    one (or more) of the drugs I take to treat my heart
    problems: -flecainide, 150mg daily (my number one suspect)
    -sotalol, 160mg daily -ticlopidine, 250mg daily.

    What is your opinion about that?

    What is your opinion about that?

    I would suggest you ask your doctor for a referral to see a
    neuro-opthalmologist.
