- Because there are 4 bonds, these are all bond pairs. Each double bond uses 2 bond pairs - which are then thought of as a single unit. Those two double bond units will try to get as far apart as possible, and so the molecule is linear. The structure we've drawn above does in fact represent the shape of the molecule.

Diplopia and III, IV and VI Cranial Nerve Lesions Cranial nerve palsies were the most common cause of binocular diplopia (67%) with a half of these being abducent nerve palsies. Microvascular disease (hypertension, diabetes mellitus or both) was present in 59% of patients with cranial nerve palsies. Monocular double vision: this is much less common.

Prism Correction and Double Vision In the optical world, double vision is known as diplopia. If you have diplopia, you may see two images, or one blurry one. Fortunately, eyeglasses with a prism embedded in the lenses can correct this. However, diplopia can also be caused by having one blind eye or an eye with minimal vision. Unfortunately, this can’t be corrected by a prism alone; eye surgery on the extra-ocular muscles may be necessary, too.
