Claritan-
I should add that the speed and change of what I'm watching makes a huge difference in aggrivating my visual system.
For example, when I first got injured, I could watch sitcoms and that was about it. This was SOOO depressing as my boyfriend and I are avid sports fans, and I couldn't watch pretty much anything, (except baseball because the shots were normally of the ball moving away from my vantage point- as the batter would see it).
After Vestibular & Vision Therapy, I can now watch football (thank God!) I can't tell you how many games I tried to listen to as my boyfriend watched and made myself super sick because I would try to sneak a peek here and there.
Hockey is still dicey. I am a huge fan, but the speed of the game and multiple angles still make it rough for me to watch, (also the bright white background...). That can be kind of a bummer, but I normally crochet or do something else with my eyes and hands and when I hear a good play, I watch for a minute or two and then get back to what I was doing. I find it's better to watch a play on instant replay as the sometimes slow it down, etc. So most of the time I hear something exciting going on, wait for the replay and catch it that way.
Hope that helps
