P.S. --- I have a first appt. next week to see one of the 'top' neuro-ophthalmologists (there are only 3-4 in the entire state, I learned) at one of the biggest universitymedical centers. I hope to learn more of what I'm dealing with in regard to my vision and why the big changes in my vision since the MTBI. For example, *is* there in fact optic nerve damage or cervical nerve 'bruising' or whatever? These are answers I've not gotten. I'm glad that your daughter has been confirmed that there is no nerve damage. As you say, in my case also, "This is not a lot to complain about." Yet it does contribute to ongoing problems. I'll be interested to hear how vision therapy goes for your daughter. One mom I know in my support group is so impressed with the benefits her 6-yr old son has received via v.t., that she is making a career change to optometry. She laughingly says: "That's the best option vs. all the longdistance driving to continue to see the only v.t. available." Smiles.
