In this reflection, Aaron shares insights after listening to a conversation between Drs Chris Wolfe and Lisa Greene on contour prism with Neurolens. Drawing from his own experience, he breaks down how integrating binocular vision screening into workflow, especially with newer headset technology, has improved patient education, efficiency, and outcomes. He explores why patients normalize symptoms like headaches and eye strain, how to uncover those issues, and why acting with urgency on functional vision problems is just as important as managing disease.
