Therefore, eyeglasses with prism lenses may be prescribed to alleviate double or blurred vision. However, since prism lenses cannot correct the outward deviation of the eye, they do not treat the underlying problem.<\/p>\n<p>To start treatment schedule an eye exam with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/practice-search\/\"><strong>a vision therapy eye doctor<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE RELATED: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/vision-therapy\/vision-therapy-for-children\/convergence-insufficiency-2\/convergence-insufficiency-treatment-trial\/can-glasses-or-eye-patches-treat-convergence-insufficiency\/vision-therapy-success-stories-for-ci\/\">Vision Therapy for Convergence Insufficiency: Success Stories<\/a><\/p>\n\n\t<div class=\"practice-search-widget\">\n\t\t<h3>Find a Vision Therapy Eye Doctor Near You<\/h3>\n\t\t\n\t<form class=\"practice-search-form practice-search-form-widget\" action=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/practice-search\/results\/\" method=\"get\">\n\n\t\t<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"distance\" value=\"100\" class=\"practice-search-distance\">\n\t\t<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"page\" class=\"practice-search-page\">\n\t\t<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"address_latitude\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"address_longitude\">\n\n\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"address\" class=\"practice-search-address\" placeholder=\"City, Surburb or Address\" value=\"\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"distance\" value=\"100\" class=\"practice-search-distance\">\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<button type=\"submit\" class=\"practice-search-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg width=\"19\" height=\"19\" viewBox=\"0 0 19 19\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M10.6796 0.130005C9.15708 0.130059 7.66615 0.5646 6.38198 1.38258C5.09781 2.20057 4.07373 3.36803 3.43004 4.74783C2.78634 6.12763 2.54976 7.66246 2.74808 9.17205C2.9464 10.6816 3.57139 12.1033 4.54964 13.27L0.729639 17.08C0.6364 17.1732 0.562439 17.2839 0.511979 17.4058C0.461519 17.5276 0.435547 17.6581 0.435547 17.79C0.435547 17.9219 0.461519 18.0524 0.511979 18.1743C0.562439 18.2961 0.6364 18.4068 0.729639 18.5C0.917942 18.6883 1.17334 18.7941 1.43964 18.7941C1.5715 18.7941 1.70207 18.7681 1.82389 18.7177C1.94571 18.6672 2.0564 18.5932 2.14964 18.5L5.99964 14.62C7.35406 15.6038 8.98566 16.1324 10.6596 16.13C12.7814 16.13 14.8162 15.2871 16.3165 13.7869C17.8168 12.2866 18.6596 10.2517 18.6596 8.13C18.6596 6.00827 17.8168 3.97344 16.3165 2.47315C14.8162 0.97286 12.7814 0.130005 10.6596 0.130005H10.6796ZM10.6796 14.13C9.49295 14.13 8.33291 13.7781 7.34622 13.1188C6.35952 12.4595 5.59049 11.5225 5.13636 10.4261C4.68224 9.32975 4.56342 8.12335 4.79493 6.95946C5.02644 5.79558 5.59788 4.72648 6.437 3.88736C7.27611 3.04825 8.34521 2.4768 9.5091 2.24529C10.673 2.01378 11.8794 2.1326 12.9757 2.58673C14.0721 3.04085 15.0092 3.80989 15.6685 4.79658C16.3277 5.78328 16.6796 6.94332 16.6796 8.13C16.6796 9.7213 16.0475 11.2474 14.9223 12.3726C13.7971 13.4979 12.2709 14.13 10.6796 14.13Z\" fill=\"#fff\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"practice-search-use-my-location\">\n\t\t\tSearch near me\n\t\t<\/button>\n\n\n\t<\/form>\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<h2><b>Is eye patching an effective CI treatment?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>While patching was commonly recommended in the past, it is no longer used in the treatment of CI.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Patching was thought to be effective in treating CI as it causes the deviated eye to work harder to converge, while the second eye is covered.

The study found that following a home-based computer vision therapy program and performing pencil push ups, are just not enough to treat the condition.<\/p>\n<p>According to the study, children who received in-office vision therapy and performed reinforcement exercises at home, showed significant improvement within 12 weeks of the program.<\/p>\n<p>In sum, vision therapy is the most effective treatment method for CI, as it directly treats the underlying issue, the inability to converge. With vision therapy, the eye is trained to turn inward when looking at near objects, correcting the neu-muscular problem that prevents the eyes from rotating inward.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LEARN MORE:\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/vision-therapy\/vision-therapy-for-children\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/vision-therapy\/vision-therapy-for-children\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1626937013539000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFqAGUJTsT9lGAgUseC1LZLz74rRQ\">Vision Therapy for Children<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you are experiencing symptoms of CI, and don\u2019t know what to do next, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/practice-search\/\"><strong>schedule an eye exam<\/strong><\/a> for a comprehensive evaluation of your functional vision.
