I just need to tell you that I applied this advice at my last eye exam and I got hands down the best prescription I have ever had. Thank you

Thanks for teaching about prisms, my wife had a stroke and they might help her.

Interesting. I’m going to need to look into this, it would explain a lot

fyi binocular vision disorder is a physical difference between eyes that usually is lifelong. you can't make it worse unless you do weird stuff to only one eye. just sometimes the brain can compensate until it can't. you need glasses to correct it.

Hmm no one ever diagnosed me with binocular vision disorder but I do have that bc TBI/double vision. Always wondered if my ADHD didn't help anything in the healing process so that all tracks as well- thanks for the new term

lmao i do this thread like twice a year and I should get a commission from optometrists for how many people immediately schedule an eye exam

Darn good thing I studied classical voice & vocal science. I did eventually figure out what was going on. It's taking me _years_ to unravel but I'm _very_ good at close-up proprioception*, micro movement & micro pressures. Such a muscular fustercluck! _______ *Utterly sucks past around 2 cu. in. 😁

Nearsighted and wearing glasses since childhood; if I'm squinting, it's either bright light or needing a new prescription. (Yeah, I'm a little autistic. Also.)

The internal oh no just keeps getting louder.

Omg thx

Well this makes sense! Every time I go I get told I have really thick/healthy optic nerves which feels like a 'win' condition in and of itself but I didn't realise I was squinting during the exams til reading this...oops.
