Neurolens

Spending too much time on screens can lead to digital eye strain and uncomfortable symptoms such as tired and dry eyes, light sensitivity, neck and shoulder pain, dizziness, blurry or double vision, and migraines. Many people struggle with these symptoms and visit multiple doctors without realizing the underlying cause: eye misalignment. When your eyes are misaligned, it can lead to trigeminal dysphoria, a condition caused by stress on the trigeminal nerve in the brain.  

At Family Eyecare of Orange, we offer Neurolens in Orange, Connecticut to provide lasting relief from chronic headaches, eye strain, and other symptoms. 

What is Neurolens? 

Your eyes function like cameras, constantly adjusting focus. When they’re misaligned, they have to work harder, resulting in strain and discomfort and causing symptoms like headaches, migraines, dizziness, and neck and shoulder pain. Neurolens lenses have a contoured prism that helps realign your eyes, easing the pressure on your trigeminal nerve, which is responsible for facial sensation. 

How are Neurolenses prescribed?

At Family Eyecare of Orange, we use the Neurolens VR headset to perform a quick and immersive measurement test during your comprehensive eye exam. This innovative, non-invasive test analyzes your eye movements to detect any misalignment issues that may be causing discomfort or strain. The headset also provides education on eye misalignment issues and how to treat them.

The 3-Minute Test That Can Change Your Life

• Step 1: The Neurolens measurement test is performed in less than 3 minutes during your regular eye exam. The test measures the degree of your misalignment both close-up and at a distance.
• Step 2: The test results will help our eye doctor determine if you have eye misalignment and the contoured prism prescription that is right for you.
• Step 3: Neurolenses aim to relieve symptoms by bringing the eyes into proper alignment at all distances.

After reviewing your test results, our eye doctor will create a customized prescription for Neurolens, tailored to your eyeglass needs. These lenses are crafted from high-quality, durable materials and feature an anti-reflective coating. Many of our patients notice a significant difference once they start using Neurolens. Even if you don’t usually wear prescription glasses, Neurolens can still help ease the pressure on your trigeminal nerve and relieve the symptoms of eye misalignment.
