TBI One Love Podcast

To wrap up our February series, we are having: Dr. Jacqueline Theis of Virginia Neuro-Optometry who treats patients of all ages with visual complaints and double vision due to development, brain injury and neurological disease.

After suffering 8 concussions as a teenager playing competitive soccer and snowboarding she was unable to read for longer than 15 minutes without triggering a migraine. She saw numerous providers who told her to just "wait it out" and after 6 years, she continued to be unable to read. After college, she decided then to pursue a career in neuro-optometry to specifically treat patients with oculomotor (eye movement) dysfunction due to brain injury, advocate for her patients, and ultimately dream to increase awareness of the profession!

Dr. Theis's mission is to provide a comprehensive neuro-optometric eye examination to help patient's understand their visual system and provide functional, evidence-based optometric treatment options to enhance a patient's quality of life so they can get back to seeing and enjoying the things they love to do.
