A patient, after enduring multiple surgical complications, struggled with significant balance issues due to a stark disparity in vision between his two eyes. Initially, his only relief came from wearing an eye patch, which, while effective, was not a preferred long-term solution.
Seeking a more integrated and less conspicuous alternative, we opted to fit him with a prosthetic contact lens designed to occlude the pupil of the weaker eye. This specialized lens mimics the effect of an eye patch by preventing disruptive visual input from the affected eye, thereby alleviating the double vision that had been causing his imbalance.
The transition to the prosthetic lens significantly improved his quality of life, allowing him to navigate his daily activities with greater ease and confidence, without the social discomfort associated with wearing an eye patch.
