Do you struggle with frequent headaches, neck pain, or tired eyes, especially after screen time or a long day at work? You might be surprised to learn that eye misalignment could be the culprit. Even small misalignments can cause your eyes to work harder, leading to symptoms that affect your daily comfort and productivity.
At Overland Optical Family Eye Care, we offer effective relief with Neurolens in St. Louis. Neurolens is a breakthrough eyeglass lens technology designed to correct eye misalignment and reduce these frustrating symptoms.
What is eye misalignment?
Eye misalignment, also known as binocular vision dysfunction (BVD), occurs when your eyes don’t work together perfectly as a team. This doesn’t always cause double vision or obvious eye issues. In fact, the signs are often subtle and easily mistaken for other problems.
Instead of seeing two images, your brain works harder to merge the images from each eye into one clear picture. That constant effort can strain your visual system and trigger a wide range of symptoms.
Eye misalignment symptoms
Many people with eye misalignment don’t even realize they have it. People with BVD may visit multiple doctors and try countless remedies without realizing their eyes are the issue.
Here are some of the most common, but often overlooked, symptoms of eye misalignment:
- Frequent headaches or migraines
- Eye strain or fatigue, especially late in the day
- Irritated, dry eyes
- Neck and shoulder tension
- Dizziness or balance issues
- Sensitivity to light
- Trouble with reading or focusing
- Motion sickness or discomfort in busy visual environments
Because these symptoms can mimic other conditions, they’re often misdiagnosed or dismissed. That’s why it’s important to schedule a comprehensive eye exam with an eye care provider who understands the connection between vision and comfort.
How Neurolens helps with eye misalignment
Neurolens is the first and only lens technology that uses a precise measurement of your eye alignment to create customized prism lenses. These lenses gently realign the eyes, relieving pressure on the visual system and reducing symptoms.
At Overland Optical Family Eye Care, we use the Neurolens measurement device to measure your eye alignment accurately and determine if Neurolens is right for you. Most patients who try Neurolens report significant improvement in their symptoms, sometimes within days. Over 93% of patients have reported relief from eye misalignment symptoms with Neurolenses1.
