I got a list of eye exercises from an occupational therapist. They can help with visual deficits, such as near term/far term focus, peripheral vision etc. As I understand it the repeated eye movements can help reconnect synapses in the occipital lobe, but I would go with the neurologist's view if the idea is that it will help "reconnect" areas not involved with visual processing. But who knows, the brain is a very complex organ and visual processing connects with memory storage and recall. Certainly can't hurt.
