What is Vision therapy?

As many as 1 in 4 students, even with 20/20 vision, still struggle to read and learn. Vision Therapy fills the gap by giving these kids the skills to succeed in life.

Vision Therapy is a customized, doctor-supervised program of in-office and at-home exercises designed to improve visual skills, such as eye teaming, tracking, and focusing, often used to treat conditions like amblyopia, strabismus, and convergence insufficiency. It aims to enhance brain-eye coordination, reducing eye strain and improving reading, learning, and overall visual comfort.
