Have you ever experienced persistent headaches, eye strain, or trouble focusing — even though your regular eye exam showed “perfect” vision? The solution might not be new glasses, but the right kind of glasses — like prism lenses.
At Perception Eyecare, a leading Stoney Creek optometry & eye care clinic, we’re proud to offer specialized testing and treatments including prism glasses to help patients with visual discomfort, eye misalignment, and symptoms that affect daily life.
What Are Prism Glasses?
Prism glasses use specialized lenses to redirect light before it enters your eyes. This helps align the images seen by each eye so your brain doesn’t have to work overtime to merge them. They are often used in:
- Vision therapy for binocular vision disorders
- Treating eye muscle imbalances or misalignments
- Reducing symptoms of eye strain, double vision, and chronic headaches
- Managing convergence insufficiency, a common cause of fatigue when reading
Prism lenses don’t necessarily “correct” vision like standard lenses, but they do relieve the stress on your visual system — which can lead to real improvements in comfort and performance.
Prism Glasses & Vision Therapy
At our Stoney Creek optometry & eye care clinic, we often recommend prism lenses as part of a broader vision therapy plan. When the eyes aren’t working together properly (a condition called binocular vision dysfunction), the brain compensates — and that can lead to:
- Frequent headaches or migraines
- Dizziness or motion sensitivity
- Difficulty reading or concentrating
- Eye strain at work or school
Prism glasses can give immediate relief from these symptoms, while vision therapy trains the eyes to work better over time.
