Post-Concussive Eyecare Service at Dr. Shalu Pal and Associates
Dr. Shirley Blanc conducts post-concussive assessments and visual rehabilitation treatment for those experiencing visual symptoms impacting their daily lives. She strives to provide solutions that enable individuals to conduct daily activities with less visual effort and better visual comfort as they proceed in the recovery process.
Vision is more than what you see on the letter chart. The ability to use vision effortlessly and comfortably, with accurate perceptions of where we are in our environment as well as where objects are in space, is the hallmark of how we perform and function in our daily lives. Vision impairment can occur even with 20/20 vision! When vision doesn’t work, it interferes.

I address the individual needs of my patients while utilizing state-of-the art technology and knowledge of the latest in medical eye care research. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have and I look forward to meeting with you soon!
I have expertise in treating patients who have suffered a concussion as a result of a sports injury or car accident, as well as from other sources.
Additionally, I specialize in eye health and eye disease prevention. If you are at risk for Glaucoma or Macular Degeneration, set up an eye exam to find out what vitamins and alternative treatments can be helpful for you.

Assessment and Eye Exams
A standard examination does not reveal enough information about the complexities of visual dysfunction associated with a concussive injury. A full assessment is necessary after an injury.
Symptoms of Post-Trauma Vision Syndrome
When vision doesn’t work, it interferes. Post-Trauma Vision Syndrome (PTVS) can impact daily function, including work, social, and recreational activities. Symptoms can vary from individual to individual.
