Convergence and Eye Teaming
This is how your eyes work together to focus, track, and process information. These skills are essential for reading, learning, and sports. If they don’t function properly, it can lead to blurred vision, headaches, double vision, and difficulty focusing.

What is Convergence?
Convergence is when both eyes turn inward toward the nose to focus on something up close, like a book or a phone screen.
✅ Healthy Convergence: Eyes smoothly come together to focus without strain.
❌ Convergence Insufficiency: Eyes struggle to turn in, causing blurry or double vision when reading.

What is Eye Teaming?
Eye Teaming (Binocular Vision) is how both eyes work together to form one clear image. If the eyes don’t team properly, they may send different images to the brain, leading to eye strain, trouble focusing, or difficulty judging distances.
✅ Good Eye Teaming: Both eyes move in perfect sync, giving clear vision and accurate depth perception.
❌ Poor Eye Teaming: One eye may drift in or out, causing visual confusion, dizziness, or reading struggles.

How do you test Convergence and Eye Teaming?
We use special equipment called the Keystone VS-V machine that measures how the eyes work together to judge distances
