Many people experience the painful symptoms of eye misalignment.  

Even though you have two eyes, your brain produces a single visual image when you look at something. The ability to maintain this focus is the result of binocular vision. If you have good binocular vision, your eyes are perfectly aligned and work well together as a team.  

When the eyes are misaligned, though, it can cause stress on the visual system and uncomfortable or even painful symptoms as a result. Even small misalignments can cause painful symptoms.

What is Neurolens?   

Ideal EyeCare in Council Bluffs, IA, now offers a breakthrough new solution called Neurolens, the first and only prescription lens that contains a contoured prism designed to bring the eyes into perfect alignment. These lenses can relieve headaches, eye strain, neck and shoulder pain, and other painful symptoms caused by eye misalignment.   

 

How are Neurolenses Prescribed?   

The first step is to book an appointment for a comprehensive eye exam with one of our doctors at Ideal EyeCare in Council Bluffs and let us know about your interest in Neurolens.  

  • We will first administer a lifestyle index test to determine if you are a viable candidate for Neurolenses.   
  • If the results of your lifestyle index test reveal you are a viable candidate, we will then utilize the Neurolens measurement device to measure the degree of eye misalignment.  
  • This test only takes a few minutes and is completely painless. It will provide your eye doctor with specific information about your eye misalignment and any problems you have seeing up close and at far distances.   

 

Your eye doctor will then review the results of the test with you and will write a prescription for your customized Neurolenses.  

Neurolenses contain a contoured prism designed to bring your eyes into perfect alignment. They are premium lenses, which means they are constructed using high-quality materials and are treated with an anti-reflective coating. Your doctor may also recommend you come back for a follow-up visit to ensure you are experiencing relief from the painful symptoms of eye misalignment.
