Two case reports of 49 and 25 years women are presented that went to the Optometry Service of "Dr. Juan Manuel Páez Inchausti" Nursing and Health Technology Faculty in Santiago de Cuba, due to a marked visual fatigue during the lingering work and intolerance to the new optic correction. A comprehensive optometric evaluation was made that showed in both cases a convergence inadequacy. Due to the characteristics of the patients, it was decided to indicate prism induced by unfocused optic center in the one presenting presbyopia, and to continue the adaptation of the new optic correction, besides convergence exercises, in the younger affected patient. With these procedures the symptoms were eliminated in them

Keywords : convergence inadequacy; convergence exercises; prisms induction; Optometry Service.
