Prevention of Double vision

Most forms of double vision cannot be prevented, but some causes of double vision can be guarded against.

To help reduce the risk of double vision caused by head injury, you should make sure you wear a seatbelt whilst driving and wear protective goggles and head protection during sporting activities.

If you are diabetic you have less chance of developing double vision if you keep your blood sugar carefully under control.
