Vision Specialists of Birmingham

Specializing in the Optometric Treatment of Dizziness, Headaches and Anxiety

Do You Suffer From Dizziness, Headaches and / or Anxiety?

Have you seen numerous Doctors, had multiple tests, tried many different medications, without much relief?

This may be the solution you have been seeking

Dr. Debby Feinberg, in collaboration with her physician colleague, Dr. Arthur Rosner (an ENT specialist), has performed groundbreaking research into the diagnosis and treatment of Vertical Heterophoria (VH), an uncommonly recognized eye alignment condition. Those who suffer from VH are over-working their eye muscles to maintain vertical eye alignment. This leads to eye muscle strain and fatigue, which causes many different symptoms, including:

  • Dizziness
  • Lightheadedness
  • Nausea
  • Unsteadiness
  • Drifting While Walking
  • Poor Coordination
  • Poor Depth Perception
  • Motion Sickness
  • Headaches
  • Neck Ache
  • Head Tilt
  • Anxiety From Dizziness
  • Feeling Overwhelmed or Anxious in Crowds or Large Spaces
  • Light Sensitivity / Glare
  • Double Vision
  • Shadowed/Overlapping Vision
  • Difficulty with Reading & Reading Comprehension

The severity and number of symptoms vary from person to person - some people are much more affected than others.

Most patients experience a marked reduction in their symptoms with precise prismatic correction

The Doctors at Vision Specialists of Birmingham use a very detailed and specialized history and examination developed by Dr. Debby Feinberg called The Neurovisual Evaluation, which allows for the diagnosis and treatment of Vertical Heterophoria (VH). Patients notice improvement in their symptoms during their first office visit. Improvement continues over the course of several visits, as a series of prismatic spectacle lenses are used to relieve the strain in the visual system, thus reducing or eliminating many uncomfortable symptoms.

How do I know if I should be evaluated for Vertical Heterophoria?

A specialized Questionnaire has been developed by Dr. Debby Feinberg and Dr. Arthur Rosner to identify those who might be suffering from Vertical Heterophoria. Fill in the Questionnaire and find out if you might benefit from an evaluation at Vision Specilists of Birmingham.


These are people with Vertical Heterophoria (VH) who have been helped.
