Quick Guide to Vision Problems Due to a Traumatic Brain Injury

A traumatic brain injury can cause several issues, including vision problems. These issues aren’t always noticed immediately, especially with other symptoms. Our team at Eyes For Wellness shares this guide to show you the next step.

Common Vision Problems after a Traumatic Brain Injury

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can lead to multiple vision problems. The following are some of the most common signs to watch out for:

  • Eyestrain
  • Headaches
  • Blurry vision
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Trouble concentrating
  • Full or partial loss of vision

These symptoms typically occur due to an impact on one or more of the following:

  • Eye Teaming - In other words, how well your eyes work together.
  • Eye Focusing - Determined as the shift between looking at objects up close and farther away.
  • Eye Movement - Often showing itself when reading or trying to follow an object in motion.

How to Tell If You Have Vision Problems

You or members of our TBI care team might notice that something is irregular with your vision after an injury, but the best way to determine any problems is to visit our optometrist.

Optometrists are skilled and specialized in looking for and diagnosing visual issues at any point in life, whether you’ve just experienced a traumatic brain injury or simply need your annual eye exam.

Our optometrist can spot current and potential vision problems through a comprehensive eye exam. Remember to mention that you have sustained a brain injury, so your eye doctor can complete additional testing.
