As awareness increases, there will be a correspondingly higher frequency of people with traumatic brain injury seeking neurooptometric evaluation and treatment. Therefore, it is imperative for optometrists to understand the signs, symptoms, and treatment of associated visual sequelae of traumatic brain injury. There are many optometric conditions caused by traumatic brain injury, including, but not limited to: convergence insufficiency, accommodative insufficiency, oculomotor dys function, visual motion sensitivity and light sensitivity. In particular, the functional vision problems associated with traumatic brain injury can be addressed with neuro-optometric rehabilitation therapy. They are often due to diffuse axonal injury throughout the brain caused by shearing and tearing of the axons. People with diffuse axonal injury tend to have slower processing speeds due to impaired function at the synapse and longer neuronal pathways. Neuro-optometric rehabilitation therapy creates an environment to facilitate neuroplastic changes within the brain, such as axonal sprouting or dendritic plasticity. This article explores possible correlation between improved clinical findings in traumatic brain injury after neuro optometric rehabilitation therapy and increased neurophysiological changes in brain activity after vision therapy for convergence insufficiency.","PeriodicalId":148913,"journal":{"name":"Vision Development & Rehabilitation","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125251356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While there is much information dealing with their defining characteristics and diagnosis, there is a relative paucity of information dealing with therapeutic intervention. Methods: In the present investigation, a retrospective analysis of 27 patients (ages 9-55 years, mean of 28 years) with documented VSS was performed with respect to treatment of the visual snow, palinopsia, and the newly-discovered versional oculomotor dysfunctions in a private, optometric practice setting. Patients were provided a comprehensive neurooptometric and binocular vision examination, as well as completed the VSS Symptom Survey. Treatment: they were given a selection of 5 BPI and FL-41 chromatic tints to assess using a simple clinical comparison protocol for the VS; they were provided a range of saccadic tests to remediate the common finding of palinopsia; and they were given optometric vision therapy to remediate the common, versional oculomotor problems. Results: Chromatic filters were prescribed in 24 of the 27 patients for their VS, with symptom reduction of at least 50%. Reduction of the palinopsia by 50-65% was found in all 23 patients who had palinopsia following the saccadic therapy. 23\u0000of the 27 were given oculomotor-based vision therapy for their versional deficits (i.e., OMD), and marked symptom reduction was reported in all. \u0000Conclusion: This is the first study to demonstrate that neuro-optometric rehabilitation (NOR) provided successful remediation of the problems of VS, palinopsia, and OMD in symptomatic, clinical patients with VSS.","PeriodicalId":148913,"journal":{"name":"Vision Development & Rehabilitation","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130221574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

TBIs can range from mild to severe (severe cases include more serious bruising, extended loss of consciousness, or seizures). In cases of a mild TBI (mTBI) symptoms such as headaches,\u0000nausea, photophobia, asthenopia, intermittent diplopia, or blurred vision are often reported. \u0000Another common symptom associated with mTBI is nausea and dizziness associated with motion-related tasks such as walking in a busy environment or scrolling an electronic device, known as visual motion sensitivity (VMS). VMS and its associated symptoms often persist for months following the initial brain injury but may be alleviated with appropriate treatment.\u0000CASE SUMMARY: KL, a 47-year-old woman, presented for a binocular vision assessment to investigate persistent symptoms consistent with visual motion sensitivity. KL had sustained a mTBI two months prior after falling and hitting her head against her daughter’s head. Throughout the exam, KL reported increased ocular discomfort, \u0000headaches, and anxiety with visually stimulating or motion-related testing, including\u0000OKN testing and tandem walks. Exam findings showed a reduction in stereopsis and a high lag of accommodation. KL was diagnosed with accommodative insufficiency and visual motion sensitivity secondary to her TBI. She was prescribed in-office vision therapy and binasal occlusion (BNO) to reduce motion stimulation. Application of BNO provided immediate relief of KL’s symptoms associated with VMS.\u0000CONCLUSION: Binasal occlusion should be considered an adjunct treatment option in cases of VMS secondary to mTBI in providing patients with immediate relief of visual symptoms associated with activities of daily living.","PeriodicalId":148913,"journal":{"name":"Vision Development & Rehabilitation","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133790338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The majority of these symptoms are consistent with those reported from patients who experience \u0000dry eyes and non-strabismic binocular vision abnormalities (NSBVA). Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of increased screen time during COVID-19 pandemic in the severity of dry eye and asthenopia.\u0000METHODS: Subjects with age group 18-35 years with no previous episodes\u0000of symptoms associated with dry eyes and asthenopia prior to COVID-19 were recruited. All the subjects underwent a comprehensive binocular vision assessment followed by dry eye evaluation. SPEED and CISS scores were computed to assess the severity of symptoms.\u0000RESULTS: 44 subjects with asthenopia and dry eye symptoms met the inclusion criteria, They had a mean (SD) age of 27 (+/- 4) years. A statistically significant difference was noted for all the measured parameters except for negative fusional vergence (p=0.059). Strong positive correlation was noticed between the CISS scores and the screen time usage (r=0.78, p<0.001 Spearman correlation coefficient), and a moderate positive correlation between the SPEED scores and the screen time usage (r=0.56, p=0.01 Spearman correlation coefficient)\u0000CONCLUSION: Dry eyes and non-strabismic binocular vision problems post COVID-19 pandemic have risen significantly, due to the significant increase in the screen time usage. Incorporating an adequate binocular vision and dry eye evaluation in conjunction with a comprehensive ocular examination would help the patients through earlier diagnosis, and provide a plan for better management.","PeriodicalId":148913,"journal":{"name":"Vision Development & Rehabilitation","volume":"AES-12 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132570583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
