Jerking Motion in Eyes Before Losing Balance with Parkinson's

Does anyone else have a jerking motion in the eyeballs prior to losing balance and falling?

  1. Hi Kaye. Do you know if you are experiencing a drop in blood pressure when you lose your balance or falling? Have you raised this question to your doctor?

    1. Boy this is me too! I start to turn around and end up doing a pirouette! Balance is a thing of the past it seems.

      I do go to an eye doctor (MD) who specializes in neurological eye issues. He said it’s the PD nothing to be done.
      My neurologist says the same thing.

      1. you're experiencing something quite unique. Have you discussed this with a healthcare provider?
