Hi. Doctors suck. Most of them. The only 2 dr who helped me were a developmental optometrist and an Otologist. to locate eye dr. go to covd.org
No other type of eye dr has the training or equipment to diagnose and help. My glasses have prisms and binasal blocking. If the doctor knows what that is then that is the right one. If they look at you like you are crazy that that is not the right doctor. My place is OCVT in austin, tx. It doesn"t cure problem but lessens the nausea, vertigo & such. Vision therapy hasn't helped. I wear sunglasses ALOT. always when outside in daytime, even if cloudy. Usually leave them on if I have to go into a store with bright lights. My gym has alot of windows and skylights. I wear sunglasses in there. I also have vestibular damage that affects balance. The best person I saw was dr. James Kemper in Austin, tx. Specifically what he is is a ear nose and throat doctor who is in otologist. Basically he specializes in the ear. There is a test called a posturegraph. You hang from the ceiling in a harness and they move the floor and the wall around to see if you lose your balance or not. I was hanging from the ceiling by the time my test was over.
