A member asked:
When i focus on something close (<6 inches), i start seeing double, is this ok?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: When you focus on something that is that close, your eyes only have the power to maintain that focus for a short period of time depending on your age. Ultimately the object that you are focusing on at near over reaches the limits of your ability to maintain the image in 3 dimensions and it is then that you begin to see double. This is relieved by you moving the object further away once again.
