Thank you for all your help and advice from this thread.

I googled post traumatic vision syndrome and it sounds very similar to the problems I have. I'd really like to have it checked out just in case there's anything I can do about it to help. However, I searched vision therapy and can't find anywhere that does it in the UK. Is this a problem that normal opticians can recognise by doing a standard eye examination or do you need to see a specialist?

The neuropsych report is very difficult to understand! Too many numbers and not enough explanation about what they mean! My estimated pre-morbid IQ is between 125-130 whilst now my full scale IQ is 97 (average between verbal IQ 107 and performance IQ 84). Although this is in the normal range, it's estimated that I've lost around 25-30 IQ points and that's without going into specific areas of difficulty like the working memory and processing speed. Is this something which will come back?

My main worry is going back to my degree. My reading problems aside, I still don't know whether I'll be capable of the level of academic thought I was before, and if not, how I can try to improve it. I noticed this when I went to see a play last week which I studied last year at uni. I could understand the linear plot and the words, but any forms of higher meaning was lost on me. It just seemed pointless and nothing more than a story.

Thanks again and wishing you all well,

Hattie
