How concussions affect vision

Concussions can cause lasting vision problems beyond the initial injury. Many people recovering from mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) experience symptoms like blurred vision, eye strain, headaches, and light sensitivity. These symptoms are often linked to binocular vision dysfunction (BVD), which can make reading, screen use, and daily tasks difficult.

Visual issues after a concussion usually stem from misalignment in how the eyes work together. Even minor misalignments force the brain to compensate, causing fatigue and discomfort. Standard eye exams may miss these problems, but specialized evaluations can identify the issues and help guide effective treatment to improve vision and reduce symptoms.

Understanding NeuroLens Treatment Explained Simply

NeuroLens is an innovative treatment that uses custom prism lenses to address eye misalignment, a common source of visual discomfort. These lenses work by subtly altering the path of light entering the eyes, helping to realign vision and reduce the strain on the visual system. For individuals recovering from a concussion, NeuroLens can be especially effective in alleviating symptoms such as dizziness, headaches, blurred vision, and eye fatigue, which often interfere with daily activities.

Unlike standard prescription glasses, NeuroLens lenses are precisely customized based on detailed digital measurements of a patient’s eye alignment at both near and far distances. This data-driven approach enables eye care professionals to create lenses tailored specifically to the unique visual needs of each patient. Many users report a marked improvement in comfort during tasks like reading, computer work, or using digital devices.

For those experiencing persistent visual disturbances following a concussion, NeuroLens provides a non-invasive and practical solution. It is particularly beneficial for patients who have tried conventional glasses or vision therapy without success. Providers such as Kleinwood Vision offer NeuroLens fittings to ensure accurate prescriptions and effective support throughout the post-concussion recovery process.

Key symptoms NeuroLens can address

After a concussion, many people experience visual symptoms caused by binocular vision dysfunction, such as light sensitivity, eye strain, and difficulty focusing, especially when reading or using digital devices. These symptoms happen because the eyes struggle to work together properly, forcing the brain to compensate and causing discomfort. NeuroLens helps by improving how the eyes align and work in unison, reducing the strain on the visual system.

Patients who use NeuroLens often report fewer migraines, better tolerance for screen time, and less dizziness triggered by motion.

Unlike treatments that only mask symptoms, NeuroLens addresses the root cause by correcting eye misalignment. This targeted approach provides more lasting relief and supports better visual comfort during recovery. NeuroLens offers a practical, non-invasive solution for those struggling with persistent visual issues after a concussion, improving their quality of life and daily functioning.

NeuroLens can greatly enhance comfort during concussion recovery by improving the alignment of the eyes. When the eyes are properly aligned, the brain doesn’t have to work as hard to process visual information, which reduces strain on cognitive functions. This reduced strain can help speed up the healing process, making recovery smoother and potentially shorter. For many patients, NeuroLens provides significant relief from symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and eye fatigue that commonly occur after a concussion.

Beyond immediate comfort, NeuroLens supports long-term visual stability by promoting balanced eye coordination. This stability helps prevent recurring symptoms and ensures that the eyes continue to work well together as healing progresses. As a non-invasive, customized treatment, NeuroLens offers an effective solution for those struggling with persistent visual issues following a concussion. By addressing the root cause of visual discomfort, these lenses help patients regain clearer, more comfortable vision and improve their overall quality of life.

Who benefits most from NeuroLens?

NeuroLens is an effective option for individuals experiencing persistent post-concussion symptoms such as blurred or double vision, headaches triggered by visual tasks, or dizziness during movement. These symptoms often stem from issues with eye teaming and alignment, which standard glasses may not adequately address. NeuroLens lenses are specially designed to correct these misalignments, reducing visual strain and improving comfort.

This treatment benefits both children and adults, particularly those who engage in activities requiring intense visual focus, like reading or computer use. NeuroLens is typically prescribed after a comprehensive binocular vision assessment that identifies specific eye alignment problems contributing to discomfort. By targeting the root cause of visual disturbances, NeuroLens helps alleviate symptoms, making daily tasks easier and supporting a smoother recovery process. It offers a non-invasive, customized solution that improves visual clarity and overall quality of life for post-concussion patients.

Stories of Recovery in Real Life

Patients recovering from a concussion often report a better quality of life after starting NeuroLens. One teenage student struggling with post-concussion headaches and reading difficulties experienced noticeable relief within weeks. Tasks like studying and screen use became easier and less exhausting.

Another example involves an adult professional dealing with screen-induced migraines after a car accident. With NeuroLens, they experienced reduced visual strain and were able to return to full-time work more comfortably.

These stories show that concussion recovery doesn’t always require months of traditional visual therapy. NeuroLens can offer faster, non-invasive relief by correcting subtle eye misalignments. For many, it becomes a key part of a broader recovery strategy, helping restore comfort, focus, and daily function without the need for extensive exercises or long-term interventions.

NeuroLens fitting and treatment at Kleinwood

At Kleinwood Vision, the NeuroLens evaluation process begins with a specialized eye-tracking test that measures eye misalignment at both near and far distances. This diagnostic step is key to identifying subtle alignment issues that often go undetected in standard eye exams. The detailed data collected is then used to design customized prism lenses that gently correct the way the eyes work together, helping reduce strain and discomfort.

Many patients begin to feel relief within days or weeks of wearing their NeuroLens prescription. While these lenses do not cure post-concussion symptoms, they play an important role in stabilizing vision and making daily tasks more manageable. By easing the burden on the visual system, NeuroLens can support the brain’s healing process and contribute to a smoother recovery.

Depending on individual needs, NeuroLens may be part of a broader treatment plan that includes specialty contact lenses or vision therapy. The optometrists at Kleinwood Vision take a personalized approach, and when necessary, they collaborate with other healthcare providers—such as neurologists or physical therapists—to ensure comprehensive care and long-term results.

For parents concerned about a child’s recovery from a sports-related concussion or for adults dealing with persistent visual discomfort, scheduling a NeuroLens screening at Kleinwood Vision is a smart step forward.
