What Is BVD?
BVD happens when the two eyes are slightly misaligned, causing your brain to work harder to merge the images into one clear picture. Over time, this constant strain leads to a range of frustrating and sometimes debilitating symptoms, including:
- Dizziness or balance problems
- Headaches or migraines
- Eye strain and fatigue
- Difficulty with reading or concentration
- Nausea or motion sickness
- Anxiety in busy visual environments (like driving or grocery stores)
Many patients with BVD are misdiagnosed or told “everything looks normal” — when in fact, a subtle alignment issue is to blame.
Common Signs of BVD
You may have BVD if you’ve experienced:
- A history of concussions or traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- Symptoms that worsen while driving or in large crowds
- Ongoing dizziness despite seeing multiple specialists

How We Diagnose & Treat BVD
Our BVD evaluations go beyond a standard eye exam. We use advanced diagnostic techniques to assess how your eyes align and work together.
Treatment often includes:
- Micro-prism lenses – Special glasses that correct misalignment and reduce symptoms
- Vision therapy – Exercises to strengthen eye teaming and improve coordination
- Ongoing monitoring – Adjustments over time to optimize comfort and clarity
Many patients report relief within days of wearing their customized lenses.
