Here’s a question I’ve wanted to know the answer to for a long time.
I’ve been sitting here waiting for my sleeping pill to kick in and my eyes are starting to do that lagging thing. You know what I’m talking about? When it seems like your eyes can’t move as fast as you want them to, and the result is that everything you look at has that fuzzy, photographic motion look to it?
This happens to me whenever I take medicines that make me tired, or when I’m sick. The thing that prompts me to wonder about this is the fact that it doesn’t happen when I’m naturally tired. Anyone know what causes this?
I’ve searched the niether regions of cyberspace for the answer, but can’t find it anywhere.
It’s much more noticable when I’m suffering from an illness, especially strep throat (I’m plagued by that damn bacteria). Sometimes it’s so pronounced that I play around with it… my vision, not streptococcus. I’ll see how long it takes my vision to “catch up” with what I’m looking at. Hey, you gotta do something when you’re sick, right?
Anyways, yeah. Have any ideas?
