Experiencing blurred vision, double vision, headaches, dizziness, or difficulty reading after a concussion? You're not alone. On the Dr. Eye Health Podcast, Dr. Joseph Allen explores how concussions and traumatic brain injuries (TBI) can affect the visual system, even when a standard eye exam appears normal. Learn why symptoms such as eye strain, light sensitivity, trouble focusing, visual fatigue, and reading difficulties are so common after a head injury. Dr. Allen explains three of the most frequently diagnosed post-concussion vision disorders: accommodative insufficiency, convergence insufficiency, and saccadic dysfunction. You'll also discover why these conditions are often missed, when to seek specialized care, and how vision therapy and multidisciplinary rehabilitation may help support recovery. Whether you're recovering from a concussion, caring for a loved one with a brain injury, or looking for answers about persistent vision symptoms, this episode provides practical guidance and evidence-based information to help you better understand the connection between concussion and vision.
