Cohoes, NY

I was at one of my infusion appointments last year and after the nurse administered my IV I put my phone down and said, “Wow … scrolling on my phone LITERALLY hurts my eyes.” And she replied that it was due to my MS. I feel I’m the only person who has dealt with this. Does scrolling on your phone ever bothered your eyes?

My vision goes blurry when I scroll on phone and takes a while to refocus when looking up.
