The Impact of Concussion on Vision (VisionHelp)
Ғылым және технология
When a person suffers a sudden blow to the head, damage can occur to the brain that results in bruising, shearing and stretching of the neural connections causing what is known as a concussion. Even those with a mild concussion can suffer significant problems which, requires rehabilitative care. Since the "neural software" of the visual system is intimately woven throughout most of the human brain, a concussion, even mild, can result in visual problems that can dramatically affect the quality of life of the victim.
To help bring about better professional and public awareness for the impact of concussions on the visual system and the lives of those who suffer from these injuries, the VisionHelp Group, composed of leading developmental vision and rehabilitation experts from around the US, discuss the impact of vision problems due to a concussive injury in this brand new video.

@Mary I’m so sorry. Me too. I understand you 💯🤗💝
Thank you so much for sharing this short version of Dr Fortenbacher’s lecture in this video. It’s so sad, having so much available (information, treatment) that so much work is done; AND recovery for patients can be so much easier, less stressful from mental anguish from medical providers accusations of ‘mental issues’ when all the time we are telling them of REAL, KNOWN complaints that can be properly addressed. Again, thank you for sharing.
I'm so glad these issues are the topic of some conversation! You guys rock!
Everything she described is what I am going through now. 53 post concussion and I am still having vision problems.... I wonder what meds neurologist prescribed for her symptoms
In the UK Neurologists and Ophthalmologists seem oblivious to these issues
I have blury vision in one eye. I think that's why my aim is far worse than previous
