READING AND PRISM GLASSES

Reading Was Horrible and Now Incredible!

Posted

It was horrible because I wanted to read but I couldn’t. I read the same line and or word twice. I couldn’t do homework without getting up about every 5 minutes because I couldn’t focus, my eyes would hurt and it took me 2 or more hours to do a page of my homework that my teacher gave me. I was also put into 2 reading classes one in 3rd grade and one in 6th grade because my teachers thought I couldn’t comprehend. Now that I have my new glasses it is so incredible because I can pick up a book, sit down and read it and understand what I just read. I read more than I ever used to. It is a breeze to do my homework and I can do it in 45 minutes or less and it is easier to focus. Thank you so much, Dr. Debby, for making school seem easier.

MORE AMAZING STORIES OF PRISM GLASSES FOR DIZZY SYMPTOMS

I am AMAZED!

Posted

I saw Dr. Debby Feinberg at 1 o’clock today and I am still absolutely amazed. I was in a car accident 2-29-08 and since have had 19 surgeries total. I suffered from double vision and due to insurance issues; I went to the University of Michigan. They performed six surgeries on my eyes and were able to get my eyes aligned enough to not see double. For approximately the two years since my last eye surgery, I have suffered miserably from balance issues and depth perception. I had difficulties walking down a hallway straight, had dizziness and anxiety issues, and just felt horrible. I had great difficulty with reading and comprehension. Going to a store caused severe discomfort due to my vision. After seeing the wonderful Dr. Debby Feinberg the transformation was eye watering. I was able to see depth and was instantly at ease and relaxed as she gave me prism glasses and the problems were GONE. I now have temporary prism glasses and feel so much more comfortable. I can’t wait for my permanent glasses to come in. I highly recommend Vision Specialists of Birmingham.
I WISH I had gone there first.

I Knew Something Was Wrong

Posted

For years I’ve sensed that something was wrong. This something is difficult to articulate because it was a constant inexplicable feeling and seemed all encompassing. I lived in an invariable state of anxiety, dizziness, confusion and slight detachment. Augmenting to this sense; was the painful reality of daily nausea, neck pain, and pounding headaches in my temples. Many doctors concluded that this pain was psychosomatic and suggested to reduce stress and sleep more. After working hard to follow through on these orders, I experienced marginal improvements. I still had headaches, dizziness and life still seemed cloudy. After years of trying to figure out what was wrong, I became burned out. It wasn’t until I worked with individuals diagnosed with a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) at my internship until I realized we had many similar symptoms. I began to understand that the car accident I was in nearly six years ago was impacting my life. Though I sensed something was wrong after “recovering” from the accident; I was told that my CT scans were normal. Desperate for help, I called on some favors from colleagues and was able to get the referrals I’ve needed for years.
I was hazy and confused when I arrived at Dr. Debbie’s office-not fully aware of why I was referred to an eye doctor. At the time my prescription was less than a year old. However, Dr. Debby instantly put me to ease as she light up the office with her enthusiasm and passion. She asked to hear my story-not even realizing I had one to tell. After years of struggling to understand myself, I finally felt understood. After she diagnosed me with Vertical Heterophoria secondary to a TBI, I was shocked. I would have never guessed that what I sensed was wrong was related to my sense of sight. After getting my first pair of prism glasses from Dr. Debby, I began to see instant changes. I felt more calm and aware of my surroundings. My nausea, dizziness and headaches dissipated. I was also pleasantly surprised to discover that my reading comprehension and speed drastically improved. I was ecstatic to report to Dr. Debby that I read 5 books in a month!
I genuinely didn’t know life could be this good. Since having these glasses my quality of life has drastically improved. Now that I’m not nauseous I am able to eat better, I no longer need to take Ibuprofen for headaches, and I am much calmer. Nearly every aspect of my life has improved. Where I was previously feeling helpless, I am now feeling hopeful and excited about my future. I feel very blessed to have Dr. Debby as one of my doctors.

MY EYES ARE CAUSING MY CHRONIC MIGRAINES?

Who would have thought that the chronic migraines I was experiencing was due to vision! I had believed that watching my feet while walking, not seeing well when looking to the side, and walking a bit crooked was normal until I began using my new prism glasses! My son says this is the explain of why I did not see his car in the garage when I backed into it. I have to admit I was a bit skeptical before my first appointment with Dr. Debby and she spent much of her Saturday morning with me on the phone helping me discuss if I was truly suffering from vision issues. My biggest concern now is what would I do if I broke my prism glasses, not something I want to experience so I plan to purchase a backup pair soon!
