What is Neurolens?

If you’re suffering from eye strain, headaches or neck pain, you’re not alone. You may be surprised to learn that about two out of three people experience symptoms of eye misalignment. The recent shift to remote and hybrid work has caused that number to increase, but many people don’t even know what eye misalignment is. Even minor misalignments can cause a variety of uncomfortable, painful symptoms that affect how you live and work. The good news? Relief is in sight and Neurolenses can truly change your life.

At least 2/3 of people experience the symptoms of eye misalignment, and that number grows as we shift to remote working and learning.

  • Dry Eyes
  • Eye Fatigue
  • Eye Strain
  •  Headaches
  • Neck Tension
  • Shoulder Pain
  • Motion Sickness

Even small misalignments can cause painful symptoms, and even small prism corrections can provide dramatic relief.

Neurolens2 Neurolens - Asheville Vision and Wellness | Asheville Eye DoctorsEach of our eyes collects information from our surroundings independently; the images captured by each of our eyes are slightly different and consolidated by our brain to form a single image. This process is continuous, and the line of communication between our eyes and brain will work as long as our eyes are open and collecting information. When someone’s eyes are perfectly aligned, this process of consolidation allows images to be clear, seamless, and free of any distortion.

Eye misalignment is when the process of creating the consolidated image in our brain is not seamless — rather, the misalignment of our eyes causes our brain to have to manually combine the slightly different images from both of our eyes. This causes stress on the trigeminal nerve and can lead to headaches, eye strain, and other visual problems.

Misalignment is usually more pronounced when focusing on an object or area that is in near range. With our current reliance on digital technology for work and entertainment, this close-range factor can cause significant discomfort for those with problems with eye misalignment who have to use digital screens in their daily lives.

Computer vision syndrome can be aggravated and influenced by the presence of eye misalignment.

neurolens-vr Neurolens - Asheville Vision and Wellness | Asheville Eye DoctorsThe Neurolens Measurement Device

It all starts by taking the short, simple Neurolens Test to find out if you’re a candidate. Most people are, even if you don’t currently wear prescription glasses. Simply schedule an appointment with our team, and your eye care provider at Asheville Vision and Wellness will be able to evaluate your symptoms and use the Neurolens Measurement Device to detect eye misalignment. This painless test only takes a few minutes to complete and makes it simple for your doctor to diagnose eye misalignment and get you well on your way to comfortable vision.

Neurolenses are worn like your typical eyeglasses, and lenses can be customized to contain your current corrective prescription along with the correction needed to treat misalignment. They can also fit into most types of frames. If you don’t currently wear prescription eyeglasses, don’t worry! Neurolenses can still reduce the amount of pressure on your trigeminal nerve and help alleviate your symptoms.

{slider title="What Are Neurolenses?" open="false"}

Neurolens1 Neurolens - Asheville Vision and Wellness | Asheville Eye DoctorsEye misalignment occurs when your eyes and brain have difficulty working together to produce a single, clear image. This irritates the trigeminal nerve, which is attached to your brain and is the largest of the cranial nerves in your head. When your eyes are not properly aligned, additional pressure is put on the trigeminal nerve, leading to overstimulation and a range of uncomfortable symptoms. This is known as trigeminal dysphoria.

Neurolenses are designed to reduce that pressure and bring your eyes into alignment using “contoured prism” technology. As more and more Americans use computers, laptops and smartphones regularly, the number of people who experience symptoms of eye misalignment continues to grow.
Did you know that eye misalignment is a common underlying issue behind digital vision syndrome?

If you frequently use digital devices, you’re probably familiar with symptoms such as dry eye, headaches, blurry vision, and eye strain. The contoured prism design of Neurolenses brings your eyes into alignment and alleviates the symptoms that are holding you back from doing what you love. In fact, 93% of patients who have tried Neurolenses responded positively and said they experienced dramatic symptom relief within a matter of months!

Asheville Vision and Wellness can help you determine whether Neurolens is the right solution for your needs. A two-step process to make this determination:

  • Our eye doctors will evaluate the frequency and severity of your symptoms.
  • Our eye doctors will clinically measure the amount of eye misalignment using an nMD. This diagnostic test takes only a few minutes and will help our eye doctors create your unique Neurolenses.

To start, take the online Neurolens test. This will help our doctors determine the severity of your symptoms and decide if Neurolens is a potential solution for you.
