finally found the right neuro-optometrist
young daughter suffered a TBI back in January. Skull fracture with subdural hematoma. No LOC. Mostly recovered except eye fatigue (frequent blinking) and some screen intolerance.
Went to the first neuro-optometrist several months ago who tested her to have mild convergence insufficiency. Did 10 VT sessions. Most of it was tracking and some convergence stuff. Got re-evaluated and suggested 10 more sessions. But the office was kinda far and I didn't think the therapy was helping her that much so I decided to hold off and get a second opinion from another neuro-optometrist who tested her and said her eyes were fine, no convergence issues and no further VT was needed.
I was relieved but at the same time I knew something was not right because her eye symptoms were still there and not getting better so decided to check with one more doctor, which was a few days ago. The testing was more extensive and thorough (1 full hour) compared to the other 2 doctors. The doctor was able to detect that one of her eyes was slightly rotated counterclocke-wise, a condition known as "incyclophoria", and she was compensating by turning her head in one direction by 5 degrees when looking back and forth between 2 pencils left and right.
She prescribed her a pair of glasses and told us to come back in 10 weeks.
Obviously not happy with the state of her eyes but glad to have found some answers. I hope the glasses work and lessen her ocular symptoms.
It's crazy how the other 2 doctors didn't even test for this condition and only focus on tracking and convergence.
Just wanted to tell everyone to always look for 2nd or even 3rd opinion if you are not satisfied with the therapy/doctor or your gut is telling you something else.
