I have a double vision. Does vision therapy help double vision?

Double vision can sometimes be helped by vision therapy. If the double vision is due to a cranial nerve malfunction, then it doesn't help except in very rare situations. Vision therapy is very expensive, ~$3,000 - $4,000 for 30 sessions. Best to see a neuroophthalmologist if one is available in your area. If there isnt one, next best is to see a pediatric ophthalmologist, regardless of your age, which is probably more likely to be in your area. If you have a medical school in your area, they will have an ophthalmology section in the Surgery Department. A neuro-optometrist will always recommend visual therapy, as well as general optometrists, since it is very lucrative. Sincerely, A neuroophthalmologist of over 45 years
