Prism Glasses Help In Double Vision: Child Eye Specialist

Prism glasses are primarily used for the person who witnesses the types of double vision caused by eye movement problems like hypermetropia.

Other conditions, like a head injury, stroke, or diabetes, can also lead to nerve damage and or weakness in the muscles that control eye movement.

When these muscles don’t work duly, the eyes get misaligned, causing double vision.

Prism glasses are made up of customized prism lenses that bend light entering the eyes to make sure the light falls in the same spot on both retinas, indeed though they aren't aligned. The lenses help the eyes work together to get a single image.

Diplopia could be caused by other things. A prism is not always the result for all cases of double vision. Since this vision problem could be a symptom of a severe health condition, you must consult your eye consultant to determine what exactly is causing it.

In numerous cases, double vision occurs due to eye misalignment. Prism glasses may help fix your double vision if the misalignment is caused by eye muscle problems like hypermetropia or nerve-related treatments like diabetes mellitus.

Prism correction may also work for you if your diplopia is due to a neurological or brain-related problem, like a migraine, head injury, or stroke.

How Do Prism Glasses Work?

Prism glasses bend light in a way that the images seen by your eyes are moved into the position they need to be in, arising in realigned images.

When the images seen by your two eyes are realigned, your brain can convert them into one, singular image. This is why prism glasses are an effective tool for correcting double vision, headaches, nausea, dizziness, and numerous other uncomfortable symptoms.
