I had a cavernoma (bleeding in the brainstem) Father's Day last year which affected my eyesight and balance, had to learn to walk again and my eyesight has returned but still have a palsy gaze in my left eye which interferes with everyday as I see double but with prisms on my glasses it makes it look normal

Hi there,

Sorry to hear about your stroke. I’m pleased to hear your prism glasses are helping and things are slowly improving. Are you involved with Vision Australia and the Guide Dogs Orientation and Mobility Service?

In regards to the tinnitus I hope you receive practical suggestions from stroke survivors. In the meantime here is some information from the Better Health Channel.

Please don’t hesitate to call us on StrokeLine 1800 787 653 to discuss further.

Best wishes,

Simone – Occupational Therapist for StrokeLine
