JL H, Headaches addressed with Syntonic Phototherapy

JL-H is a young adult who complains of frequent headaches. She is a Computer major and obviously spends a lot of time on the computer. “The headaches come and go depending on the workload. My biggest concern is that now, I can't see far away anymore. I feel like I can't stay awake at times. Exhaustion is an issue for me. It is an 8 out 10 problem and it affects me daily”. The source of her headaches, and the problem of seeing at distance is actually from a problem at near, and how her visuals system functions when doing near work, such as working on the computer.
Her mother accompanied her to the visit. Her mother had benefited from Syntonic Phototherapy and Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation in our office.
The examination indicated that JL-H has a problem with physical focusing at near. In addition, we prescribed eyeglasses that helped her see more clearly at distance. After she got those eyeglasses, she said: “I never realized how much of a problem I had seeing at distance and how much clearer I see now.”
The Syntonic Phototherapy Evaluation enabled us to identify which filters would be the best for her, in her particular case. Two weeks after starting Syntonic Phototherapy, she reported: “it's easier when I look at bright lights. I used to sit in dark rooms, because I couldn't handle light. The eyeglasses have made a big change. Just being able to see makes me happier and have less headaches. I didn't realize how much I had to do to compensate for not being able to see”.
Binasal occlusion helped open her periphery even more. By the 3rd week of Syntonic Phototherapy, she had gained the benefits that were intended. Her options are to now progress to the Vision Therapy or to stop at this point. She said: “I am happy where I am now". We will regroup in 6 months.
We are so happy that we were able to help her solve her problem, and that she is now better able to handle her world.
