I also had convergence insufficency.....there are eye exercises to help it. I went to eye therapy was expensive and my insurance did not pay for all of it. Today it is gone and my eyes are working together fine. I have a home base therapy I do just to make sure it stays. the problem is not uncommon even for people who spend a lot of time on the computer. I went to 35 half hour sessions, plus did a a bit of work here at home. She worked around and through my sever symptoms and slowly things got better.

I've tried vestibular rehab, chiro(waste of $), and wish I would have started with getting my vision checked. I wouldn't be able to work(function) without my glasses.

The best I've felt is when I was exercising regularly. Symptoms may flare up quickly, so do what you can and try to a little more each day.
