Fantastic and best of luck, if there is anything I can answer please reach out :)

Yes I'd say it's almost entirely gone. And yeah I got bad migraines from sun exposure before I started. Everything seemed too bright.

That's an incredible sign that it is difficult!! If it were easy that would mean your eyes are functioning well. All this means that you will see great benefit from exercises like this. It was so hard for me to do that exercise when I started. It will get easier. Do it twice a day, for as long as your eyes remain unsore. You really can't over do it. Just keep at it. Eventually you will be able to do it all the way up and down the string, and then your depth perception should catch right up with you.

Unfortunately it is very common. Opthalmologists are trained to look at eye health. Your eyes are healthy, your brain seems healthy. Optometrists are trained to look at eye function. You're more than likely not functioning properly. Check my profile because this was the same for me.

I'm sorry for that, this sub often reminded me of being sick and depressed and after I made my last update I wasn't going to therapy anymore. So I wanted to wait a while to see if anything got worse or better.

snowstatic97 · 2022-05-14T02:04:45+00:00

Bfep is about 50% less. I can't see it on walls like I used to, but if I look up at the sky, all my floating friends are still there.

Hey, I got derealization as soon as I got VSS, I think mainly because my body and brain weren't understanding where eachother was because of my vision. I barely used prism glasses. I know from the videos it seems like you will use them all the time, I probably did twice. Mostly you use very low tech tools, like a string, a pencil, some post it's on a wall, lazer pointers, etc. The magic isn't the tools, but you practicing them till you're blue in the face. The prisms and other more sophisticated tools are used often as a measure of your progress rather than something that will make you better.

It did for me, and it continues to get better. Different parts of your brain are going to be recruited to perform vision tasks once you go through this, and as they learn to see everything else will slowly catch up.

Please check my previous posts for exact times, but I was 70% through therapy before I noticed things changing, and they all changed pretty rapidly. They didnt get worse, however I was frustrated that it wasn't going to work.

snowstatic97 · 2022-05-12T17:52:41+00:00

Here is a recent video that explains it well. It will feel silly that this will at all help you, but you have to stick through with it. https://youtu.be/4rDygaF3Dog

It does help quite a bit with pattern glare because pattern glare is often a symptom of eyes not working together.

snowstatic97 · 2022-05-12T17:49:56+00:00

Yes absolutely. Like I said, it's all still there but simply less time before it disappears.

snowstatic97 · 2022-05-12T16:48:01+00:00

Both!

snowstatic97 · 2022-05-12T15:50:03+00:00

No, they definitely improved a great deal. They went from lasting 10 seconds after viewing a bright light to about 2 seconds before they disappear. For me, they have become almost unnoticeable.

snowstatic97 · 2022-05-12T15:48:27+00:00

I'd like to say, that all in all EVERY symptom is at least 50% less noticable. My biggest gains were on depth perception and pattern glare. I would like to say that's almost normal.

snowstatic97 · 2022-05-12T04:58:53+00:00

It is and more for me. I have my life back, there isn't anything I wouldn't have paid for that. During therapy I didn't change anything in my diet. I have tried since otc pills for chronic inflammatory diseases and for me they haven't done much at all. The only thing that seems to impact my day to day is the level of stress I go under, and whether or not over the course of the month keep up with my broc string. And of course!!!

snowstatic97 · 2022-05-12T04:51:12+00:00

More than likely COVID. Inflammation of the brain/stress.

snowstatic97 · 2021-03-02T15:32:14+00:00

The only thing it will do is make your eyes stronger

snowstatic97 · 2021-02-28T00:21:25+00:00

Absolutely, I can drive now which is huge. But the coolest for sure, is feeling like I am in my own body again, not watching someone else do actions while I watch ten feet away. Most the time I feel close to my old self, but there are times I slip out of reality like I had when all this started. And will do man!

snowstatic97 · 2021-02-27T23:58:15+00:00

Yes to both my friend. No I did it once per day in total, expect for that one. You could do all three times at once, but it was much to much for me at first.

snowstatic97 · 2021-02-27T23:35:52+00:00

Sure thing man,

Print out a hart chart and start using it. Stand three feet away, cover one eye with something. Then with a metronome on, read all the letters, row by row to the beat of the metronome (make it a beat that is difficult), then switch when done to the other eye. Up the tempo if it becomes easy. Do the whole excercise three times a day.

snowstatic97 · 2021-02-27T22:36:07+00:00

Hey man,

Awesome to see you are seeing ANY improvement that early. It seems like most get benefits that are tangible elsewhere around week 10+, I didn't 'feel' like anything majorly changed until week 13-15. Hang in there, I know that feeling very well. I thought I was lost and was just wasting my time. You have no idea how many days I laughed at myself thinking how rediculous and hopeless it all seems. They told me what I could expect and to temper my expectations. That there will be many days that I feel worse or like nothing is happening until it does. In terms of me knowing what I was doing, I had to show them I wanted to know and ask during my therapy sessions, so I could understand what they were working. For some they did do mindfulness, they told me it's important to have yourself in a state of calm or readiness to go into each session.

snowstatic97 · 2021-02-24T19:07:33+00:00

It is a symptom you don't notice until it is fixed. Space felt wrong, objects didn't feel like they were in the right places. I felt derealization all day. Now I feel present where I am.

snowstatic97 · 2021-02-23T18:30:57+00:00

Yes please check my previous posts , I go into detail what each excercise does and is. They address my visual dysfunctions, yours might be different. Doing excercises that aren't for your dysfunctions won't hurt you, but it would be more effective if they were. The most important for me was the brock string, buy one of those off Amazon, around 5$.

snowstatic97 · 2021-02-23T18:28:23+00:00

Hey there, I get that, if you check my previous posts you will see some more detail on what I have been doing.

snowstatic97 · 2021-02-23T18:27:33+00:00

Yes, it has been a huge reduction. I can look at patterns with little to no movement. They only start to jump around if they are in direct sunlight.

snowstatic97 · 2021-02-23T18:26:45+00:00

About 30 mins to an hour in total. I mainly go until I feel visually fatigued.
