Post Trauma Neurological Vision Care
Great vision is part of achieving success at work, home, sport and life!
Why Vision Care Matters After a Brain Injury
After a traumatic brain injury (TBI), concussion, or stroke, vision changes are common but often overlooked. Even when eyesight appears normal, the brain’s ability to process visual information may be disrupted. This can lead to difficulties that affect daily life, independence, and recovery.
Common Symptoms
People recovering from brain injuries may experience:
- Blurred or fluctuating vision
- Double vision
- Eye strain, fatigue, or headaches
- Light sensitivity (photophobia)
- Difficulty reading or concentrating
- Dizziness, balance issues, or motion sensitivity
- Challenges with driving or returning to work or study
These symptoms can be frustrating, slowing rehabilitation and affecting confidence.
How we can help
At Eyes by Design, we take a holistic approach to post-injury vision care. Our behavioural optometry assessments look beyond standard eyesight checks, focusing on how your eyes work together and how your brain processes what you see. Depending on your needs, we may recommend:
- Prism lenses to reduce double vision or strain
- Tinted or filtered lenses for glare and light sensitivity
- Vision therapy for targeted exercises to rebuild visual skills
- Customised eyewear solutions to support reading, driving, or returning to work
Recovery is unique to each person. We provide ongoing support and collaborate with your wider healthcare team to help you regain confidence and independence
