Probably a 4th cranial nerve palsy. The 4th cranial nerve is subject to injury from blunt head trauma, such a falling, whiplash injury, or just bumping your head on a cabinet. Usually the double vision is vertical and is worse when looking away from the affected eye. There might also be a tilted component. The nerve regrows spontaneously over a period of months. MRI rules out more serious causes.
