Vision Therapy - What are yoked prisms and how are they used in Vision Therapy?

Prisms not only shift space linearly but also make rotational changes so it also influenced the Z axis. Yoked prisms are used to change the visual input and then vision (compilation of motor/proprioception/vestibular/auditory) has to make an adjustment and this is called "learning". So you are changing the input with the yoked prism and the body needs to use vision to change it's projection. Anyone that can't do this is not properly functioning in the visual sense. Yoked prism goggles can be used for in all aspects of VT"

Cool! Thanks for taking the time to explain and share your knowledge and experience, this will come in handy in my studies!

Thanks for the great explanation of the purpose of using these in therapy. The best explanation I have hear.

Good to see a video about this. Where can you get them? I think they can help many people but I should imagine a lot of opticians have never heard of them. Really great that they are self adjusting.

You can buy them online without prescription from a few websites. vteshop.com for EU or good-lite.com for US.

@@mlee7450 how would you know the diopters needed?

[@mlee7450]

@@ShotStoppers 2 or 3 diopters should be pretty versatile for exercises as well as therapeutic use. get the corrected curve version if available. recommend getting different diopters so you can do asymmetrical prisms as well for example R 3 base in L 2 base in

I was just talking to my eye doc about there should be something like this! where did you get these? they are really smart & good! I told my doc there should be something where the patient can change the prism location instead of keep buying a diff one!

Can it work for double vision

Hi, how are you doing these days? Did you find a good vision therapist in Holland?

[@user-fw9gp8wg7f]

Why is the prism on the front side?

[@strabismusworld2026]

I didn’t design the goggles… But it makes sense the flat side is towards the eyes and the tilted side towards the outside it seems to me.

[@rhaebeam]

how much are these?

[@Tanjaamazon]

Ya, I hate them. I don't think it will work for everyone
