Amphodiplopia

/ˌæmfoʊdɪˈploʊpiə/ noun

Definition

A rare vision condition where a person sees double images with both eyes, sometimes from different causes in each eye.

Etymology

From Greek 'amphi' (both), 'di' (two), and 'opia' (vision condition). Medical terminology combining to describe diplopia affecting both eyes simultaneously or from bilateral sources.

Kelly Says

What's wild is that this isn't just seeing two of something—it's when each eye contributes to the doubled image in different ways, like a biological glitch that requires each eye's unique malfunction.
