Some patients experience double vision or visual discomfort because their eyes are no longer working together comfortably. A prism evaluation includes specialized binocular vision testing to determine whether prism lenses may improve visual comfort. If prism therapy is appropriate, your eye doctor will carefully measure and prescribe the amount of prism that's best suited to your visual system. Not every patient with double vision needs prism lenses, which is why careful testing always comes first.

Developmental Vision Evaluations in East Orlando

Our evaluations look at how your eyes work with your brain. We do not only check how clearly you see. We test the vision skills you use every day for reading, learning, work, sports, driving, and daily tasks. This helps us see if a functional vision problem may be causing your symptoms.

A Developmental Vision Evaluation Helps Us Understand How Your Visual System Works

A developmental vision evaluation typically takes about 1½ hours. We know that's longer than a routine eye exam, but there's a reason.

Instead of only checking how clearly you see, we test many visual skills. This helps us understand how your visual system works in daily life.

Taking time for a full evaluation helps us give clear recommendations based on what we find, not guesses.

Not All Eye Exams Evaluate the Same Things

Routine eye exams play an important role in protecting your eye health and updating your glasses prescription.

Our evaluations are different. Rather than focusing only on eyesight, we evaluate how your eyes and brain work together during everyday activities.

This includes looking at eye tracking, eye teaming, focusing, binocular vision, depth perception, visual processing, and functional visual performance.

Beside her is a woman who is probably a doctor or a nurse in a pink uniform and a yellow ribbon on her waist. She is holding a black object, which is probably a phone, and is probably taking a picture of the young girl.
