Abstract
Following a mild TBI, symptoms of diplopia and
photosensitivity are common. Findings such as a
vertical deviation, may contribute to exasperating
symptoms. Treatment of vertical deviations may
cause hesitation for the provider as there is not a
consensus in relation to prescribing vertical prism
amounts. In regards to photosensitivity, fortunately
most diminishes in intensity over the first couple of
months following injury. Further treatment, including
tints and sunglasses, improves patient comfort.
