I can only last 1/2 hour at a time on the computer and have just recently started wearing the prism glasses, however my occupational therapist was saying that lighting in the office (ie. florenscent lighting) can have a huge effect on eye strain, the other thing he mention was about getting me a mac computer or ipad, there is something about regular monitors that has some sort of "flicking" property which can play havoc with the eyes.

Not sure if it helps by environmental interference can be really bad. He also mentioned that lighting in grocery stores are really bad and that there is some kind of sun glass you can wear to improve the situation. I find in shopping malls I have to wear my sunglasses as the lights really make me sick.

I also was wondering in general if people with PCS and those who also have post traumatic vision syndrome, convergence insufficiencies, mid line shift syndrome, etc. seem to be the ones who are longer to get back to work or seem to be the ones who don't get back to work.


I have been told from my 15 months post accident that it will more than probably be another full year before I can work..... I find this amazing and of course there is the disclosure .... they don't really know.

I wish you the best of luck......
