One of the most common and most unpleasant symptoms of a concussion injury is the damage to one's ocular motor function. If you are struggling with your vision, you are probably struggling to live a normal life. That’s why we have Dr. Gerald Komarnicky with us on the show today; a highly distinguished optometrist who deals regularly with patients who are suffering from concussion injuries. Gerry explains how our vision works, the types of visual difficulties that people experience with a concussion injury, and how he helps concussion survivors regain their normal motor functioning and therefore regain their lives. We discuss in detail how the C-Rod, the tool he developed, should be used, how long you can expect to use it for, and how you are likely to feel when you start using it. Concussion is a life-long injury, but it doesn't haven’t to cause life-long distress or suffering.
