The crisis involves the extraocular muscles not the eye and its optical characteristics. Blurred vision or diplopia may be transiently present during the crisis. Take care.

Oculogyric crises involve the muscles controlling the eye, they might involve transiently vision, not an intrinsic vision issue.
