All muscles in the body can be affected by PD. Eyes actually have cogwheeling. This is why a new medical specialty marries ophthalmology to neurology and the special area of expertise is effects of neurological conditions on the eyes.

I haven't actually put castor oil in my eyes yet. But have used it extensively on other parts of my body. I'll get an eyedropper and test out the theory of putting it in your eye, of course if I were you and I had expensive eye drops I might stick with that. At least until I ran out of the expensive stuff.

I think most vision problems such as blurred or double vision are side effects of the PD medications rather than the PD directly.
