Here we discuss the lobes of the brain, it’s specific function and the symptoms we see when affected by post-concussion syndrome. Many people have symptoms associated with more than one brain region.

With post-concussion symptoms a person may experience:

Visual processing center.

With post-concussion symptoms, a person may experience:
  • Visual disturbances
  • Double vision / Blurred Vision
