Neurolens for Eye Strain & Computer Vision
If you spend hours each day on a computer, tablet, or phone, you’ve probably felt the effects. You may experience tired eyes, chronic headaches, a stiff neck, sore shoulders, or blurry vision after too much screen time. In many cases, symptoms of eye strain may be linked to a condition called binocular vision dysfunction, where your eyes struggle to work together.
At Overland Optical Family Eye Care in St. Louis and St. Charles, we offer Neurolens to target the root cause of these problems and help you finally feel comfortable behind the screen. Whether you’ve tried blue light glasses, adjusted your monitor, or taken more breaks, Neurolens goes further than traditional eye strain treatments by correcting small eye misalignments.

What is Neurolens?
Neurolens is an innovative prescription lens designed to alleviate the symptoms caused by eye misalignment, such as headaches, dry eye, and eye strain. They are the first and only lenses to use a contoured prism that gently brings your eyes into better alignment, reducing the constant effort your visual system puts in throughout the day. Clinical research shows Neurolens wearers experience a significant boost in quality of life, with a greater reduction in headache impact compared to those wearing placebo lenses.
Along with relieving chronic headaches and migraines, Neurolens can also reduce neck and shoulder pain and support better posture. When your eyes are no longer straining to focus, your body can relax, leading to less discomfort.
What does Neurolens treat?
Eye misalignment
Even small misalignments can force your eyes to work harder than they should. Neurolens gently corrects these shifts so your eyes can focus with less effort and greater comfort.
Computer vision syndrome
Blurry vision, dryness, and eye fatigue are common signs of computer vision syndrome, also known as digital eye strain. Neurolens supports natural alignment, making them some of the most comfortable glasses for computer use.
Headaches
Strained eyes can trigger frequent headaches. Neurolens helps prevent them by reducing visual stress at the source.
Neck and shoulder pain
Poor visual alignment can affect your posture. Neurolens encourages a more natural head position, easing muscle tension in your neck and shoulders.
Dizziness
When your eyes send mismatched signals, it can throw off your balance. Neurolens provides steadier visual input, reducing dizziness for many patients.
Dry eye
Eye strain can worsen dry eye symptoms. By lowering the demand on your focusing system, Neurolens can help improve eye comfort throughout the day.
Light sensitivity
Overworked eyes often become more sensitive to light. Neurolens helps your eyes relax, making bright environments easier to handle.
