Guest guest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Hi Marfla, Yes! I wondered what that was about! I have the same thing....I thought it might be something to do with the medication...Baclofen or clonazapam. Yes...the words lind of 'flicker' or jump. It improves if I take a break. Maybe something to do with eyelid muscles...or muscles around the eyes. My eyelids twitch a lot! Take care!

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 yeah Di, I get the eyelid twitches a LOT. But the reading and words jumping around on the page is so weird. From what I can see so far it happens when looking down to read, like sitting at a table with the paper on the table. Also in bright lights. I am already light sensitive and even at times wear sunglasses with lite tint inside. And if outside have to wear sunglassess. it is weird words jumping/flickering around. but fortunately it passes. I have just thought the eyelid twitching i get often is due to fatigue, even when I don't feel tired. best wishes marfla orlando fl Be Blessed Re: Eyes shaking? > Hi Marfla, > Yes!

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 OK...I have just tried it. Yep...when I look down or straight up....things do flicker a bit. It IS weird! I think you are right...muscle fatigue.
