Traumatic Brain Injury

Vision troubles often arise from TBI as vision processing involves vast brain areas. 90% of TBI cases lead to vision disruption due to communication breakdown between the eyes and brain.

Concussion and Mild Brain Injury

Despite its classification as "mild," a concussion is still a brain injury with the potential for persistent debilitating symptoms and disruptions to normal brain function.

Children and teens are the most impacted demographic, with over 60% encountering visual symptoms. Older individuals are also susceptible to concussions. We highly recommend an immediate eye examination if you or a loved one has suffered a concussion or whiplash due to a forceful head impact.

Stroke Recovery

A stroke, also known as a cerebrovascular accident (CVA), occurs when the blood supply to a brain area abruptly halts or a brain blood vessel ruptures, causing blood to spill around brain cells. Stroke-triggered ocular changes encompass sensory aspects (visual acuity and field), motor elements (extraocular muscle movement), and perceptual shifts. We highly recommend neuro-optometric rehab for individuals who have suffered a stroke.

Vestibular Disorders

The intricate vestibular system, comprising inner ear structures and brain pathways, maintains balance and spatial orientation. When harmed by disease or injury, vestibular disorders emerge, causing symptoms like dizziness, disorientation, blurred vision, anxiety, nausea, and more. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, labyrinthitis, vestibular neuritis, and Meniere's disease are frequent diagnoses.

Neuro-optometric rehabilitation therapy can enhance visual-brain communication, easing symptoms and fostering optimal recovery. Request an appointment for a functional visual evaluation to get on the path to improved quality of life.

Binocular Vision Dysfunction

Binocular Vision Dysfunction (BVD) manifests diverse symptoms in adults, affecting up to 70% with persistent headaches and 30% with anxiety. A functional vision exam is vital, as standard eye tests only assess visual acuity, not binocular teamwork. Essential visual skills are only assessed through an exam, uncovering subtle misalignments and neuro-visual processing issues. Request an appointment today for a tailored BVD solution.
