Perhaps your vision is also difficult as a passenger in a moving vehicle? I have been told that if you have vision difficulties (binocular vision, for me), tracking moving objects while riding in a car would elicit motion sickness and headaches.

For me, the prism glasses at 100% took four weeks to notice a difference, and even now, I am struggling. It is better, but slow progress.

Don't hesitate to contact your neuro-opthalmologist! They can provide advice based on your feedback.

Good luck!
