I am so sorry to hear that u r having so many problems. Since u r having so many vision problems from having a head injury..... I think it would be a good idea to see a special kind of eye doctor........they r called a "neuro-ophthamologist" They r eye doctors who r also specialists in neurological problems. They may be able to help u with the visual issues. I had a head injury with memory problems.....there r occupational therapists who specialize in helping people try to regain some memory and to retrain your brain into working right again.....and also giving u strategies to cope with memory defecits. Blessings to u!

The helmut was shattered; my skull was not. I had a nasty concussion though. I am very lucky it wasn't more severe.
I had a number of vision problems, cranial 6 nerve damage resulting in double vision, poor balance, short term memory loss, some personality changes, some mental processing issues. I see improvement week by week, which helps a lot.
Over all I am pretty upbeat about the whole thing. I see I am getting better, which helps so much. Lately it has been getting harder, though. It just keeps dragging on and on.
