Concussion Management

Concussions are a result of a brain injury due to a blow to the head. This is prevalent in contact sports such as football, ice hockey, soccer, and lacrosse, making these athletes at higher risk. Post-concussion symptoms range from blurry vision to headaches and nausea, but through vision therapy many of these symptoms can be resolved.
Common Concussion Disorders

The Brain Injury Institute estimates that 50% of patients with a concussion can have visual problems that may include:
- Light sensitivity
- Blurry vision
- Dysfunctional smooth eye movements
- Headaches while looking at things up close (e.g., reading)
In addition, the American Optometric Association reports that “the most common binocular vision disorder occurring in post-concussion syndrome is convergence insufficiency (CI), with a prevalence of 49% in children.” This is when the eyes are unable to work together.
An estimated 3.8 MILLION sports-and-recreation-related concussions occur in the United States each year.
