I agree with others. checking chcked by a neuro-opthamologist (an amzing one in Minneapolis!!!!!) and then a behavioural optometrist represented a MAJOR breakthrough for me...vision therapy and prism glasses. Can finally use computer after one year. Many brain injuries bring about problems with brain vision interconnections. This cannot be ignored (at least to make sure you don't have any deficits in this area).

I only found this out 5 months after the accident, and I wish my doctors had told me sooner. I was complaining but they ignored it (because they did not have the necessary knowlesge). Good luck!

i see a nuero-opthamologist actually tommorow morning for the first time regarding my flashy vision and double vision and sensitive eyes to light. do you think i can actually go in with confidence that they will be able to cure me of these issues. im willing to do anything its my last and most annoying symptom

A neuro-oopto might help and s/he might not. If not, don't lose hope. Check out the links I posted above and see if you can get Vision Therapy.

i hope it goes well. I have made major progress with my vision therapy...many of the major problems (saccades, fixation, convergence problems, tracking..pursuits) have improved greatly. Vision is one of the brain's most complex and energy/cognition consuming activities,,so if it is damaged, not much space left for other things!
good luck!

I have just scheduled an evaluation with a developmental opthamologist for my daughter due to a recurrance of PCS symptoms (headache and vision). That is fantastic to hear how much you have been helped by vision therapy

Terrible that this area of medicine is not more widely recognized/available. Glad folks can learn of it here.
