i get what u mean by the distatchment i just have poor vision but when i cant make physical objects and depth between objest and even in distance it feels horrible
Dude I've had BVD for years now and I explicitly asked one of my optometrists recently if they made crazy looking adjustable glasses for BVD like the measurement gear you have on-- The doctor admitted it was not a crazy idea for someone in the vision industry to start manufacturing and prescribing them to people with our condition. Presently I am waiting to get a job where I can afford Vision Therapy and am also slated to finally talk to my city's optical surgeon-- but you and I are probably aware surgery for BVD is a crapshoot.
How many prism pairs have you gone through? Is the rate of needing a new pair going up (need to go back sooner than last time)? This is my fear with prism glasses, they cause your eyes to get lazy faster and make it worse. The other option is vision therapy... not sure if that really works long term either?
This will be my third set I believe. I went 2 years with the current set, but I do recommend going back annualy or sooner if needed. My daughter went back and her prescription didn't require new lenses, so I don't see any evidence that it makes your eyes weaker at this point.
I've had BVD for 15 years and been through about 10 vision specialists and the concensus is that "eating the prism" or "going full prism" is not a good idea for the reason you're describing; Apparently it's like a parapalegic who only stays in a wheel chair and never uses a walker so that nerves / muscles never wake up / repair. Some of them even say prism is a bad idea altogether. Unfortunately, they also admit that both surgery and vision therapy are so/so treatments at best; but I am considering one or both and in the meantime just wear an eyepatch when I start to lose my mind. Basically BVD is all but mystifying to vision experts accross thw world. We have to just keep throwing things and see what sticks.
Pray Stemcell therapy becomes. Regulated for vision. There are many studies on the neuro visual treament of TBI patients. And BVD is closely linked to TBI in general so I think the future is there OTHERWISE look up synthonics Vision For Life
Also, a Question: (Sorry for double post) -- What is your view and stance on finally getting surgery for BVD, assuming you could somehow afford it through medicaid/medicare, or something else, would you get the ocular muscle surgery?
Blessing to you Brother Man.

Glad these glasses help you when you get them though!
