Question

A client who recently experienced a stroke tells the nurse that he has double vision. which nursing intervention is the most appropriate?

Answer 1

Double vision is the medical condition in which a person loses depth perception, and may get confused by what he or she sees.It is caused by damage to nerves responsible for moving the eyes.  It usually comes from a stroke in the brainstem.
The most appropriate nursing interventions in this case are: covering one eye or applying opaque tape to one lens of their eyeglasses, using prisms (prisms move or redirect the direction of light entering the eye).
