- Do you think getting a big screen would help. Large fonts, would they reduce eye strain and improve symptoms?

I would be grateful for your thoughts on these two issues.
I went to my vestibular therapist today to chat with her about vision therapy. She was thrilled that my eye dr did not want to put me in prism glasses mainly because she felt it was not a proven technology. I know I sure wouldn't want to wear them for a upwards of a year plus.

The more I read and talk to people, the more convinced I am to give Vision therapy a shot.

Also, for what it's worth, I did buy a larger 26" computer monitor and I know it has helped my eye strain (at the very least).
