Say Goodbye to Digital Eye Strain with Neurolens®

TotalVision is proud to introduce Neurolens, a groundbreaking approach to eyeglasses that revolutionizes vision correction. If you’ve ever experienced discomfort or strain while wearing glasses, or if you’re seeking a new dimension in vision correction, Neurolens might be the solution you’ve been waiting for.

What is Neurolens?

Neurolens is a brand of prescription lenses designed to address symptoms associated with eye misalignment. These symptoms often include headaches, neck pain, eye strain, and visual fatigue, commonly exacerbated by digital devices and prolonged screen time.

Neurolens lenses are unique because they provide a contoured prism correction that helps correct the misalignment at all distances, which regular glasses or contact lenses do not typically address.

Understanding Eye Misalignment

Eye misalignment is when the eyes do not properly align when focusing on an object. This misalignment can be subtle and may not be readily noticeable to the untrained eye, but it can lead to significant visual discomfort and strain. Commonly, this misalignment is a type of binocular vision dysfunction, where the eyes struggle to work together effectively, especially during close-up tasks like reading or using digital devices.

Studies indicate that significant misalignment is present in over 90% of patients, leading to symptoms such as headaches, neck pain and stiffness, discomfort while using computers, eye fatigue, dry eyes, dizziness, and sensitivity to light.

How Neurolens Works to Provide Relief

The technology behind Neurolens was developed based on research that suggests many symptoms of digital eye strain and related discomforts can be linked to misalignment between the eyes when performing near tasks. By slightly adjusting the angle at which light enters each eye, Neurolenses help the eyes to work together more comfortably and naturally.

We customize these lenses for each patient based on measurements taken during a specialized eye exam that assesses the degree of eye misalignment. The goal is to enhance visual comfort across all activities, especially those involving near vision.

Neurolens Measurement and Eye Exam

The Neurolens Measurement device is a piece of equipment used during the Neurolens exam to measure the degree of eye misalignment accurately. It does so through tests and visual tasks that simulate everyday viewing situations. It utilizes advanced eye-tracking technology to detect even the slightest misalignments across different distances and gaze positions. This high level of precision helps customize the lenses to each patient’s specific needs.

Neurolens Exam

The Neurolens exam involves several steps:

  1. Patient History: Gathering information about the patient’s visual habits and symptoms.
  2. Visual Task Assessment: Patients perform tasks using the measurement device, which tracks eye movement and alignment as they engage with targets at various distances.
  3. Misalignment Measurement: The device measures the trigeminal nerve’s response to misalignment, which is believed to be a source of the symptoms.
  4. Custom Prescription: Based on collected data, a specific prescription for Neurolenses is formulated, including the necessary prism correction to alleviate the patient’s symptoms.

This comprehensive approach ensures that the lenses are correct for standard vision problems and addresses the specific alignment issues that standard eyeglasses or contact lenses may not solve.
