Utah Patient ‘Blown Away’ by What Eyeglasses Do for His Injured Brain

When initially examined at the Mind-Eye Institute in November 2019, Gabe was told his eye movements were at a third-grade level. “The computer showed my gaze was scattered. My eyes were not even staying on the line that the words were on as I read,” he recalls. But since receiving his first pair of therapeutic eyeglasses - “BrainWear™” - in December, Gabe says, “I have already read five books - and understand them.”
“My dad realized that I was not the person I once was, that I was unable to reach my full potential. He did a lot of research, discovered the book Ghost in My Brain, read it and brought the information to me,” Gabe says. In the book, author Clark Elliott PhD, a DePaul University academician and specialist in applied artificial intelligence, details his eight years of struggles following a traumatic brain injury and his search for practitioners who could help him return to his old self. Published in 2015, the book describes what Dr. Elliott calls the “magic” work of the Mind-Eye Institute.
The book “resonated with Dad and me,” says Gabe, and prompted them to arrange an appointment at the Mind-Eye Institute. “We came to Chicago with hope but did not expect to get blown away by the results.”
Gabe remembers removing his first pair of Mind-Eye glasses from the box, looking at them, and thinking, “This is it. My life will no longer be the same.”
His prediction proved true.
“The glasses have expanded my visual field and reduced my sensitivity to noise and bright lights. I am more aware of what is around me and do not even feel the need anymore to wear sunglasses when outdoors or driving. My headaches are gone, too,” says Gabe.
