What Is Neurolens?
Neurolens eyeglass lenses are designed to treat eye misalignment. Even minor misalignments make your eyes work harder because your eyes can’t work as a team.
The contoured prism lens is customized to your measurements, helping to correct eye misalignment and relieve pressure on the trigeminal nerve.
What Are the Side Effects of Eye Misalignment?
Because the eyes work harder to focus together, normal visual tasks can add pressure on the trigeminal nerve (a complex system that communicates head and neck sensations). This pressure can trigger uncomfortable symptoms, including:
- Eye strain
- Eye fatigue
- Headaches
- Neck tension
- Dry eye sensation
- Motion sickness
Are Neurolens Glasses Worth It?
Dealing with eye strain can make simple tasks feel overwhelming and leave you feeling uncomfortable throughout the day. We want to help you experience visual comfort with ease. With Neurolens, your glasses can bring back the comfort and clarity you’ve been missing.
Correcting eye misalignment and relieving unnecessary stress on the trigeminal nerve can help you return to enjoying the things that matter most in your day. Your eyes will thank you.
Customizing Your Neurolens Prescription
Precisely measuring your eye alignment is a critical step in crafting your personalized contoured prism lenses. Using Neurolens technology, we can assess the variance between your eye’s natural alignment and find the optimal position for clear, comfortable vision. This evaluation typically takes under 3 minutes.
Your prism lenses will look like standard eyeglasses, though one edge may be thicker. With your tailored prescription, we’ll help you choose a frame that makes the extra thickness virtually undetectable.
Get Back to Comfortable Vision with Neurolens
Struggling with eye strain shouldn’t keep you from enjoying every moment—whether excelling at work or cherishing family movie nights. At Island Eyecare, we’re committed to helping you achieve clear, comfortable vision—so you don’t miss out on what truly matters.
