A member asked:

When driving i notice led headlights appear doubled, one above another. nothing else is doubled. i had lasik over a yr ago and last wk started lexapro (escitalopram)?

See eye doctor: I doubt that this is due to the lexapro (escitalopram). It would be good for you to see your doctor and an ophthalmologist to make sure that there is not a problem with your vision. If it gets worse see your doctor right away or go to Emergency.
