Binocular Vision Dysfunction (BVD) is a condition where your eyes are misaligned, sending two different images to the brain. This misalignment can cause symptoms like headaches, dizziness, anxiety, motion sickness, and chronic neck pain.
Symptoms of BVD
Physical Findings
Neck pain, clumsiness, head tilt.
Reading Challenges
Difficulty focusing, fatigue.
Driving Symptoms
Anxiety, car sickness, night glare.
Other symptoms
Neurological Symptoms: Migraines, vertigo, seizures.
Anxiety Symptoms: Panic attacks, agoraphobia.
Binocular Vision Symptoms: Double vision, poor depth perception, hand-eye coordination issues.
Causes of BVD
BVD can be caused by facial asymmetry, concussions, or head injuries. It may also be genetically inherited or triggered by conditions like stroke, Lyme disease, or COVID-19.
Misdiagnosis of BVD
BVD symptoms are often mistaken for conditions like anxiety disorders, ADHD, migraines, sinus problems, and more. Proper diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment.
The NeuroVisual® Exam
Our comprehensive NeuroVisual® Exam goes beyond standard eye tests to diagnose BVD. It includes assessments of eye movement, focusing, posture, balance, and more. Even with 20/20 vision, BVD can be present and impact your life.
Prism Glasses for BVD
Prism lenses align the images sent to your brain, reducing eye muscle strain and relieving symptoms. These lenses are custom-fit and may require adjustments over time.

“I was about to be put into a special education class because I was having so many learning problems. That was ten years ago. These lenses changed everything, really! The headaches disappeared. Reading was so much easier, and I could figure out my homework.” - Kali
“I was riding my motorcycle and was hit from behind. The years that followed were filled with excruciating pain. I couldn’t cut the grass, cook, or do much of anything. Then, one of my therapists referred me to a BVD specialist. When I put on the trial lenses, the pain instantly left. This is the real deal.” - Roy
