Ability to Enjoy Life Again

I've always had trouble with depth perception, but it wasn't until I much older that I became increasingly frustrated at the fact that my prescription glasses never seemed to be quite right, no matter how many times my prescription was "corrected". Once, when I specifically asked my local optometrist about BVD, he told me that if I had it, I'd be 'seeing double' and so I let it go for a while, thinking I must have been wrong despite a sky-high score on my online BVD test. 

At age 55, I started having problems with dizziness, nausea and several other symptoms. including feeling as though I were on a rollercoaster when driving,  not being able to walk up and down the asiles in grocery stores without ending up in tears, and not being able to congregate with family and friends because the motion of people moving around made me beyond dizzy... it was awful! To keep a very long story shorter, I discovered i had been repeatedly exposed to carbon monoxide which sent my sypmtoms into a downward spridal. As part of my recovery plan, I chose to take action and made an appointment with Dr. Lam and was officially diagnosed as having BVD. 

Are prism glasses a cure-all for BVD? In my experience, honestly techninally 'no'...however I can tell you that they have helped me 85-90%, and to me, that's everything! At least I can now drive myself in a car for several hours without having a massive migraine, and I can walk up and down grocery store aisles without wanting to cry! At least I no longer have to wear ear plugs due to noise sensitivity when I vaccum my house, and I don't have to cower away from family and friends! Considering the state I was in when I first saw Dr. Lam, I would encourage anyone who is experiencing BVD symptoms to go to Eye Care North for an evaluation. My determination to do what is best for me despite nay-sayers led to a vast improvement in my vision and in my ability to enjoy my life again. Thank you, Dr. Lam and everyone at Eye Care North!
