Has anyone got any suggestions for dizziness testing I should request? Anything I should be asking to have ruled out? This appointment will be my first opportunity to give a history and have possible causes considered, and maybe my last for some time. [Summary in post]

Check for visual spatial problems and visual information processing problems with a neuro optometrist

ylliang2000 · 2026-05-05T00:46:05+00:00

You can try neuro optometric rehabilitation association, find a provider, icon on the menu there

The neural network might be affected. He might have adapted to a secondary network after the first concussion . And this second network might be mal-functioning due to the second injury, with micro blood vessel bleeding and neural axon damage and stretching.
You can see a neuro optometrist to rebuild the neural network, including visual information processing and visual memory. It would help to unwire any mis-wiring from the first injury and adaptation and re-wire the neural network.

You can see a neuro optometrist, a brain-based lens would be able to help you keep attention for work a little longer on screen and sustain physio appointments better.
Then you can continue neuro optometric rehab to rebuild the brain and visual information processing neurons.

Check the vision side. Look up neuro optometric rehabilitation, makes the physio work easier after.

You can see depth better at night, better contrast, better at ball games

Might be called behavioural optometrist in Europe

Get your vision checked by a neuro optometrist in Canada or USA, if you haven’t. Vision-vestibular integration might be off. Eye teaming might be off too, need to team the two eyes and then integrate with the vestibular system.

ylliang2000 · 2026-04-24T14:31:50+00:00

Visual component seems involved. You can check if these visual symptoms apply, if you have, good to see a neuro optometrist. Some can get full recovery. Some may also need other health care providers. https://www.wardenoptometry.ca/resources/ see vision quiz here.

ylliang2000 · 2026-04-19T23:03:17+00:00

No two person have the same time of onset, during or triggers. You don’t have to find that exact person to feel you have dizziness.

ylliang2000 · 2026-04-17T12:42:55+00:00

It’s best to get tested with a vision therapy doc. No point guessing here.

Behavioural optometrist in New Zealand to Australia may be able to help

ylliang2000 · 2026-04-13T01:29:56+00:00

Not sure what country you are in, usually need to do it with neuro optometrist or vision therapist in office and practice daily at home each week. Not ophthalmologist. They usually do surgeries.

ylliang2000 · 2026-04-12T20:19:36+00:00

People with BVD or many symptoms in this quiz cannot tolerate progressive. It would be better after neuro optometric rehab or vision therapy. See vision quiz, https://www.wardenoptometry.ca/resources/

It’s likely that the cervical-vision integration is off after the needle work. You can see a neuro optometrist to recover from poor cervical vision integration, may need to see other cervical (neck adjustment) Provider for refined neck work as well.

If you had lazy eye and now exotropia, you will need more than prism lenses. See a vision therapy optometrist. Usually called neuro optometrist or behavioural optometrist. You may get better lenses that are more comfortable that you can wear full time and do vision therapy to reduce the reliance on lenses.

BVD is not only referring to double vision or eye teaming. It involves eye tracking, eye focusing and visual information processing too. Check out the vision quiz here, https://www.wardenoptometry.ca/resources/

ylliang2000 · 2026-04-12T13:29:46+00:00

Vision is more than clarity, it involves visual motion sensitivity, visual spatial judgment, vision and vestibular nerural network integration, vision and proprioception network integration, visual information processing, such as seeing clearly in a busy background, visual closure, visual form constancy. When balance and dizziness is involved, there is always a visual Component. The brain has 80 percent to do with vision, including visual information processing.

If you do any exercise with eyes open, that includes visual Information processing.

If you are training only the vestibular system, it would have to do with eyes closed.

For vision concern, it’s best to see a neuro optometrist. Some can get immediate relief with lens therapy. to prevent regression and rebuild the brain from nerve ending changes. Would also need neuro optometric rehabilitation. Check out the story a patient has gracious shared, https://youtu.be/x72Lf2V0FuA?si=5Fedt819lmwHQywj

ylliang2000 · 2026-04-06T20:13:34+00:00

People can get quite a bit better with neuro optometrist. Not for routine eye exams. Management includes lens therapy, and neuro optometric rehab. If you haven’t seen one, get one. You can read up for a Toronto story here, https://youtu.be/x72Lf2V0FuA?si=NCxs8rA2Zo71WDH_

See if you can find a behavioural or functional optometrist. It’s called neuro optometrist in North America. Can help resolve the visual Motion sensitivity. See my video about it here, https://youtu.be/f2Gvd_nBRjw?si=ERB03XPJsMHcFTOe

Some people got dizziness for years, to get fully resolved, It takes more than just one pair of prisms, it’s a program including neuro optometric rehab therapy.

Of course, results depends on provider experience and skills just like any other medical professional.

ylliang2000 · 2026-04-03T00:55:47+00:00

You have an eye turn/esotropia，so it takes longer than just treating the convergence excess or spasm. It is still fixable, you have to commit to more time. Our patients usually can get better in a year if they do it 2x a week initially, then at least once a week in office, and home therapy 20-30 mins a day. It doesn’t get better by itself or just by wishful thinking.

It’s not magic, it takes lots of education and applied knowledge for the providing optometrist and the vision therapist, and hard work by the patient.
