 Posted: 01/28/05 - 23:32 Post subject: vision while running
A strange question, but I have recently had an attack of vertigo (since resolved). Can people advise if when they run and their foot hits the pavement (with resultant vibration through the body ) there is a brief bounce or shake to their vision ahead (i.e. if they are looking in the distance at a tree or object is there some brief vibration to that object coiniciding with pavement strike). I suddenly seem very aware of what I suspect is normal. would be interested in other thoughts. Thanks

When I ran on the treadmill today, I noticed that it was harder to look at my neighbor's shed that's 50 ft. away then it was to watch TV that's only 5 ft. away. I guess things get a little bouncy, but I guess I'm just used to it.

I recall in my 25-yrs of running that happening once and it scared the toots outta me. I don't think a 'bounce' in your vision is normal. Have you had an eye exam lately? I'd mention to the eye doc

since you have had vertigo issues, i'd definitely mention this to a doctor. i really haven't noticed any shake to my vision with a footstrike, ever.

yes, I do. It isn't normal. Somedays are worse than others. I have seen doctors and have yet to have it resolved. One said it was old age and the bones are hardening. I.don't.think.so. I'm wondering.....do you suffer from allergies???? Last summer I had the vertigo really bad that I had trouble getting out of bed, I had to hang onto things, and my vision changed with any slight movement. Antiobiotics can help, but I don't know what's causing it. This week I'm having a vibration thing going on like you describe, but my vision seems okay. I'm getting over a virus which is why I think it's all related to inner ear problems
