A member asked:
Can myasthenia cause diplopia that last for 14 days constantly or does it only cause fleeting symptoms?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes..: Myasthenia gravis could certainly cause both persistent and fleeting double vision. There could be other causes of the double vision however, and it should be evaluated by an ophthalmologist or possibly your neurologist as well.

Myasthenia: It could do either. Fluctuations in vision can change over the course of a day or remain constant for days/weeks at a time. Treatment should help to resolve symptoms.
