Neurogenic diplopia was the most common etiology for both groups, but is more prominent in the older adults. Noticeable findings in the older adults were SES diagnosis, identification of triggers for impaired fusion/diplopia, and a paucity of positive findings in imaging results. It is important to know these differences not only for managing seniors better, but also to minimize symptoms of binocular diplopia after lens-related procedures.
