What Makes Someone an Ideal Candidate for Neurolens?

Today, vision experts have many different options for correcting vision problems. That includes the Neurolens, which professionals consider a miraculous breakthrough. After all, they link optometry and neurology to help realign a person’s eyes in a safe and comfortable way.

Introduction to Neurolens

Neurolens is both a measurement device and a prism optic lens. In other words, a vision specialist can use it to help diagnose an eye misalignment issue. At the same time, they can fit a person with the lens to correct the problem. Not only does that correct vision but also alleviates many physical symptoms.

Made with prism optics, Neurolens reduces eyestrain as well. In severe cases, a person experiences double vision. Since the brain and eyes work together, these lenses cover two things at once. In addition, Neurolens reduces pressure on the nerves of the eye.

Understanding Binocular Vision Dysfunction

In simple terms, Neurolens correct binocular vision dysfunction or BVD. As a subtle type of eye misalignment, some people suffer from it without even knowing. Their primary care providers may observe different symptoms but often without a diagnosis.

Even mild eye misalignment can cause a host of symptoms. Here are some examples:
 

• Chronic Neck Pain
   

• Persistent Headaches
   

• Ongoing Fatigue
   

• Motion Sickness
   

• Sense of Drifting

If any of those sound familiar, your eyes could be the underlying problem as opposed to a physical ailment. In addition, people with Scoliosis, Torticollis, and other spinal issues can suffer from BVD due to how they hold their neck and head. So, perhaps it’s time to visit a qualified doctor that specializes in vision correction.

Trigeminal Nerve

This is another reason why ophthalmologists suggest Neurolens. The Trigeminal nerve runs from the brainstem to the facial muscles around the eyes. Pressure on this nerve can compromise a person’s perception of light, leading to a condition called Trigeminal Dysphoria. The individual would suffer from headaches, dry eyes, eye strain, and even shoulder or neck pain.

Are You a Good Candidate?

For the conditions mentioned, as well as others, Neurolens offers tremendous improvement. Although these conditions can affect anyone, they’re most commonly seen in certain people. Here are some examples of the things that can lead to these conditions and produce the list of symptoms:
 

• Poor posture
   

• Eye strain from detailed work with insufficient light
   

• Fatigue
   

• Dehydration
   

• Calorie insufficiency

The bottom line is that if you’re struggling with chronic headaches, dizziness, eye strain, and so on, it’s time to make an appointment with a vision expert. Upon examination, a doctor can determine if you have misaligned eyes, even if it’s minimal. After performing an examination, they can advise you if Neurolens is the right treatment.

Stop Suffering

After hearing doctor after doctor tell you that nothing’s wrong, you probably questioned your sanity. There’s a good chance that you have an eye problem that neurolens can correct.  Neurolens is relatively new on the market.  Most PCP’s haven’t heard of it. In fact, many optometrists and ophthalmologists haven’t even heard of it.  The first patient we helped to get fit for neurolens had gone to other medical doctors, had MRI’s and CT scans run and the doctors couldn’t figure out why this 10 year old boy was having daily headaches.  When his mother approached us we were just learning about neurolens.  Fortunately, the representative for Neurolens was willing to get him tested at another facility and once he had his neurolens, his headaches went away.  Needless to say, that was a strong testimonial that caused our office to invest in the insrument to help other patients who were also suffering. Dr. Joseph Fife at Paradise Canyon Eye Care offers multiple solutions, including these revolutionary lenses. Contact our St. George, Utah, clinic today at 435-291-5093.
