Restoring Balance to the Way You See

Binocular vision disorders occur when eyes are not properly aligned or cannot maintain proper focus together. This can cause a range of symptoms and difficulties, especially during tasks that require sustained visual effort like reading, computer work or driving. Treatments may include vision therapy, corrective lenses, or prisms. Personalised care plans help restore coordination between the eyes and enhance visual function.

Who Benefits from Binocular Vision Treatment?

Treatments aren’t just for kids, adults too can benefit from better eye coordination.

Eye misalignment (eyes that don’t point in the same direction)
Poor eye coordination (difficulty keeping both eyes focused)
Eye strain or fatigue (especially during reading or screen time)
Headaches or dizziness (often triggered by visual tasks)
Visual processing disorders (problems interpreting visual information)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is binocular vision dysfunction?
Binocular vision dysfunction (BVD) happens when your eyes aren’t perfectly aligned or working together as they should. This misalignment forces your brain and eye muscles to work harder, which can cause strain, discomfort, and difficulty processing visual information.
What are the common symptoms?

People with BVD may experience headaches, blurred or double vision, dizziness, poor depth perception, difficulty reading, eye strain, and sometimes a sense of imbalance or motion sickness.

How is BVD diagnosed?

Diagnosis involves a comprehensive binocular vision assessment by your optometrist, including tests for eye alignment, coordination, focusing ability, and how your eyes and brain work together.

Can BVD affect learning or work performance?

Yes. In children, it can cause reading delays, reduced concentration, and avoidance of near work. In adults, it can lead to fatigue, difficulty focusing on screens, and reduced efficiency at work.

What treatments are available?

Treatment may include prescription lenses to reduce eye strain, customised vision therapy programs to improve coordination, and strategies to make visual tasks easier in everyday life.
