Myasthenia Gravis often cunningly manifests as double vision (diplopia), arising from weakness in the extraocular muscles that control eye movement. Because the weakness typically affects muscles unevenly, the eyes fail to align perfectly, sending mismatched images to the brain. This double vision is classic for its fluctuation: it may appear or worsen with sustained gaze, reading, or driving, and often improves with rest or closing one eye. This shifting visual anomaly is a powerful, often frustrating, signal of the immune system's attack on precise muscle coordination.
