Zak Bagans Eyes Require Him To Wear Prism Glasses

Zak Bagans eyes have a condition called double vision or diplopia. It is not an inborn condition but something that developed later.

Diplopia is the medical term for double vision or seeing double. It is not a serious condition, but regular follow-up is suggested.

When a person sees two images of a single object, then it may be considered as double vision.

Normally, the eyes, the muscles moving them, the nerves that transport pictures to the brain, and the brain all have to work simultaneously. Any difficulty with any of these parts can result in double vision.

Such a condition can affect one eye (monocular)or both eyes (binocular). It can be horizontal (images appearing side by side) or vertical (images appearing above the other).

Monocular is less common and is usually caused by dry eyes, astigmatism, and cataracts. On the other hand, binoculars are generally a symptom of squint and are caused by eye muscles or nerve disorders.

How long has he had double-vision?

Zak was not born with it but developed it after filming one of the Demon House documentaries.

According to Bagans' tweet of 2019, he confirms having permanent double-vision. He wears prism glasses every day as a protector.

As stated by the Best of Las Vegas article, the ghost hunter developed this condition in a Gary, Indiana House. The house was home to 200 demons as claimed by visionaries.

The paranormal investigator bought the residence without even visiting, over the telephone. He spent his time locked inside the house hunting ghosts.

Since that day, his eyes began crossing. He visited four doctors, but none could explain the rapid outbreak of his vision problems.

He wishes for an operation, but after finding that he may go blind, he decided to stick with prism glasses for the rest of his life.

Treatments for double-vision

Depending upon the cause of the double vision, Optometrists may suggest one or more following treatments;

  • Barring the vision of one eye using an eye patch, occlusive lens, or prism glasses
  • Injecting botulinum toxin
  • Surgery
  • Treating other medical conditions
