Are you suffering from eye strain, headaches, or neck pain regularly? You may be surprised to learn that these are symptoms of eye misalignment. Most people don’t know about eye misalignment, but they can certainly feel the painful and uncomfortable symptoms it causes!  

What is eye misalignment?   

Your eyes work together, sending signals to your brain that form a single visual image. This ability to maintain focus while using both eyes is due to binocular vision. When you have healthy binocular vision, your eyes are perfectly aligned, allowing you to see one clear image. 

When your eyes are misaligned, you can develop a condition called binocular vision disorder (BVD). BVD puts significant strain on the trigeminal nerve, which is the largest and most intricate nerve in your brain, leading to a condition known as trigeminal dysphoria. The growing reliance on digital devices in today’s world, such as computers, tablets, and smartphones, may exacerbate this issue. 

What are the symptoms of eye misalignment?   

Eye misalignment can cause a range of symptoms, including: 

  • Headaches 
  • Eye strain and fatigue 
  • Dry eye sensation 
  • Neck and shoulder pain 
  • Motion sickness/feeling off-balance 
  • Poor depth perception 
  • Clumsiness 
  • Blurred or double vision 
  • Difficulty reading 
  • Sensitivity to light 
  • Restless sleep  

These symptoms are uncomfortable and can impact your work and your life. Fortunately, treatment options are available to improve eye alignment and resolve symptoms.  

Neurolens   

At Primary Eye Care Associates, we offer a breakthrough solution known as Neurolens, the first and only prescription lens that contains a contoured prism to bring the eyes into perfect alignment. By incorporating a contoured prism into the lenses, Neurolens helps realign the eyes, reducing eye strain and discomfort caused by BVD. It’s a unique treatment option for patients experiencing symptoms such as headaches, neck pain, eye strain, and difficulties with near and far focus. 

How are Neurolenses prescribed? 

The first step is to take a short, simple Neurolens test to see if you’re a candidate for Neurolenses. The next step is to schedule a comprehensive eye exam with Dr. Steven Chander at Primary Eye Care Associates for Neurolenses. Our team will use the Neurolens eye-tracking device to accurately detect and measure any misalignment in your eyes. The testing is quick and completely painless—nothing touches your eye at any time. 

Following the exam, Dr. Chander will review the test results with you and prescribe your custom-made Neurolenses. These lenses are tailored to your eyeglass prescription and are of premium quality, featuring a standard anti-reflective coating and made from durable materials. Even if you don’t currently wear prescription eyeglasses to correct your vision, Neurolenses can still alleviate trigeminal nerve pressure and offer relief from the discomfort caused by eye misalignment. Many patients have reported that Neurolens has been life-changing!
