What is Binocular Vision Dysfunction?
People suffering from Binocular Vision Dysfunction have a small amount of There are six different muscles controlled by three different cranial nerves that coordinate the movement of each eye.
In order to achieve perfect binocular vision and to avoid double vision, the brain and all twelve muscles must work together so that each eye points directly at the object being viewed.
When the eyes cannot perform this eye teaming task accurately, this is referred to as binocular vision dysfunction.vision misalignment not found on a routine eye exam. Their body corrects the misalignment by 
overusing and straining the eye muscles, causing the symptoms of Binocular Vision Dysfunction.
What is the solution?
NeuroVisual Specialists have made pioneering discoveries into the diagnosis and treatment of Binocular Vision Dysfunction. Our patients undergo a detailed and thorough examination of their vision, including assessment for small amounts of vision misalignment (the NeuroVisual Evaluation). Near vision, far vision and
Vision alignment problems can be corrected with prism lenses. Prism lenses can bend beams of light, and can redirect the image (red dotted arrow) onto the center of the back of the eye (the fovea (big red arrowhead)) while the eye is in it’s original, slightly misaligned position (black arrow). Since there is no need to realign the eye, there is no overuse of the eye muscles, which markedly reduces or eliminates the symptoms of Binocular Vision Dysfunction.
