    For 10-30 minutes after playing, I get double images...

    I ahve started holding my droid away from me as far as possible, it helps A LOT.


    EDIT: I have been having allergies, so I flush my eyes 4-5 times a day.. that might've helped also.

    Your double vision goes away after a few minutes? Be careful, bc it sounds like you're developing what I got.

    I do try yo hold it away from me -- but it always ends up close up again.

    Hmm... A few people suggesting the rinsing -- I'll have to try that.

    Yeah... I used to always have it migrate closer.. until moving it away was the only thing I thought about... I now play at arms length... a bit harder, but worth it.
