Motion sickness is often associated with car rides, boats, or amusement park rides, but what many people don’t realize is that it could actually be connected to a hidden vision problem. If you’ve tried the usual remedies and still feel dizzy, nauseous, or uncomfortable during motion, your eyes may be playing a bigger role than you think. At Focus On Eyes, we help uncover the root cause and offer real solutions through advanced testing like the NeuroVisual Exam.

When we think of balance, most people associate it with inner ear health or muscle coordination. However, your visual system plays a critical role in maintaining equilibrium, and when something’s off, it can disrupt your ability to stay steady. One of the lesser-known but impactful conditions that can affect your balance is Binocular Visual Dysfunction (BVD).

Do you often struggle with nausea? Do you get car sick, especially as a passenger? Are roller coasters and spinning rides difficult for you? Or maybe you experience frequent dizziness? Many people experiencing these issues are often thought to have inner ear or "vestibular" problems. However, the symptoms don’t stop there – they might also feel clumsy, have trouble with balance, feel unstable when walking, or experience a sensation of moving as if they were on a boat. Despite seeing multiple doctors and undergoing various tests, many still don’t find relief.

As we age, many aspects of our health can shift—including our vision. While age-related concerns like cataracts or presbyopia are widely recognized, one lesser-known condition that can affect older adults is binocular vision disorder (BVD). This condition occurs when both eyes don’t work together as a team, leading to symptoms such as double vision, headaches, eye strain, and difficulty with depth perception.

If you struggle with frequent migraines, dizziness, or a constant sense of imbalance, you may have spent years searching for relief—only to end up frustrated with temporary fixes. One often-overlooked cause of chronic headaches and discomfort is Binocular Vision Dysfunction (BVD)—a condition where even small misalignments in your eyes can create significant strain on your visual system. If you’ve been chasing migraine treatments without success, your vision might hold the key to lasting relief.

Contact lenses have come a long way from being a simple vision correction tool. While standard soft lenses work well for many people, some individuals need a more specialized approach to address unique eye conditions and vision needs. Specialty contact lenses are custom-designed to provide clear, comfortable vision for those with irregular corneas, presbyopia, or other specific vision challenges.

Keratoconus is a progressive eye condition that affects the shape of the cornea, leading to distorted vision and sensitivity to light. If left unmanaged, it can significantly impact daily activities such as reading, driving, and using digital screens. Fortunately, advancements in specialty contact lenses provide effective options for improving vision in individuals with keratoconus.
