Vertical Heterophoria, ADHD, and Success

Tomorrow, I have the pleasure of examining a wonderful patient of mine. He has ADHD and in spite of that he is a brilliant computer programmer. When I first saw him, he told me that the words always move on the screen and that he could feel his eyes pulling.  These are of course classic symptoms of Vertical Heterophoria. The many medications he is one probably contribute to his poor binocular vision.  His prism glasses immediately made his eyes feel better.

Why am I so excited to see this particular patient tomorrow? He told me that I was the first eye doctor to listen and take his complaints seriously. That make me feel really good.
