Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder that often mimics Parkinson’s disease in its early stages but brings its own unique set of challenges—particularly related to balance and eye movement. People with PSP may experience frequent falls, difficulty looking up or down, and blurred or double vision. These symptoms not only affect mobility but also independence, safety, and overall quality of life.
Understanding how PSP impacts balance and eye coordination is the first step toward improving symptom management. While there is currently no cure, targeted therapies, practical adaptations, and nutritional support can help slow progression and enhance daily functioning. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore the causes behind PSP-related motor and visual issues and offer actionable solutions to help patients and caregivers alike navigate the condition with greater confidence.
