headaches & migraines

 Headaches and migraines can affect your daily life, concentration, work, and overall quality of life. In some cases, visual stress or uncorrected vision problems may contribute to or worsen headache symptoms.

If you experience frequent headaches, migraines, eye strain, light sensitivity, difficulty focusing, or discomfort during prolonged screen use or near work, your vision may be playing a role. At Surf City Optometry, our doctors evaluate the visual system to identify potential contributors to headache and migraine symptoms, including refractive errors, binocular vision dysfunction, accommodative problems, eye strain, and sensitivity to light.

A comprehensive evaluation allows our doctors to assess how your eyes work individually and together and determine whether your visual system may be contributing to your symptoms. When appropriate, we can develop a personalized treatment plan based on your individual visual needs and lifestyle.

If you're experiencing persistent or recurring headaches or migraines, schedule an evaluation with our doctors to determine whether your vision may be contributing to your symptoms.
