I second both comments.

I am now involved in vision therapy. I was seen by an eye doctor who performed a developmental visual evaluation. Based on that and a functional vision evaluation, he concluded that the concussion caused some visual problems. I now have glasses to help with my close up vision, (directly related to the concussion and not due to aging or failing eye site etc.) I also go to vision therapy once a week to teach my eyes how to work together again and to help my brain work with those images to percieve the world as it is around me.

The glasses have made a huge difference for me already. I"m only on week two of therapy but I think it also is going to be a huge help to my symptoms.

Make sure you eye doctor has experience with vision therapy, TBI etc.
