San Francisco, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/07/2014 -- Do you suffer from car sickness, motion sickness, headaches, lightheadedness, dizziness, disorientation or anxiety? Have you visited many specialists, had various tests, and still have not been given a diagnoses or a solution?

You could be suffering from Binocular Vision Dysfunction (BVD). Dr. Vincent Penza of City Optometry in San Francisco, CA, is always on the cutting edge of technology and the latest treatments in eye care. Recently, Dr. Penza completed a comprehensive externship in the field of BVD and is now treating patients for this condition at his practice.

Binocular vision dysfunction (BVD) is a visual condition where the line of sight from one eye tends to be slightly out of alignment with the line of sight from the other eye and this puts heavy strain on the eye muscles as they are constantly trying to correct the alignment to achieve single focus vision.

This heavy strain on the eye muscles results in dizziness, headaches, disorientation and reading difficulties.

Using a realigning prismatic spectacle lenses, the strain and fatigue within the visual system is reduced or eliminated in very short order. The average person experiences a 30-50% reduction in symptoms almost immediately and a 70-80% reduction of symptoms over the course of the several visits as the prismatic prescription is fine-tuned and customized for the individual.

The treatment is for a short period of time, with the average person completing the treatment in just 2 to 3 months.
