At Home Concussion Eye Exercises (Dizziness Treatment After Concussion or Traumatic Brain Injury)

After a concussion or other form of TBI, it’s common to experience dizziness—especially when moving the head, focusing the eyes, or navigating busy visual environments. This often happens because the injury can temporarily disrupt how the brain, inner ear, and eyes work together to maintain balance and visual stability. Eye exercises, also known as "oculomotor or vestibular-ocular rehabilitation", can help retrain these systems whether in kids or adults. By gently practicing specific movements—such as shifting focus, tracking objects, or coordinating head and eye motion—the brain can rebuild these pathways and reduce dizziness over time. These exercises are simple, progressive, and can be tailored to each person’s symptoms, making them an important part of recovery for many patients after a concussion.

Each exercise should be performed for 30 seconds or 3 sets of 10 repetitions twice a day. Take a 30-60 seconds break between exercises. Pause exercises if any symptoms develop including headache, dizziness, nausea, eye fatigue, eye pain, etc. Resume exercises after symptoms subside.

For exercise #9, a brock string was used. This string can be purchased on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4pz8LR2
