How can I prevent diplopia?

There aren’t any ways to specifically prevent experiencing double vision, but taking good care of your eyes and seeing your healthcare provider regularly are the best ways to catch issues before they cause you pain or other symptoms. Follow these steps to maintain good eye health:

• Don’t smoke.
• Give your eyes a break from looking at electronic screens throughout the day.
• Wear appropriate protective glasses or goggles for all of your work, sports or other activities.
• Schedule an eye exam every one to two years (or as often as your healthcare provider recommends).
