“Good vision is more than seeing 20/20!”
Vision therapy is an extremely effective treatment tool for many visual problems such as:
- Convergence insufficiency (eye teaming)
- Accommodative insufficiency (eye focusing)
- Oculomotor dysfunction (eye tracking)
- Poor 3D (stereo) vision
- Eye turns (strabismus)
- Lazy eye (amblyopia)
- Visual problems from stroke or traumatic brain injury (such as the symptoms below, an unstable visual environment, or difficulty in areas with lots of visual motion or regular patterns like grocery store aisles)
These conditions can cause symptoms (symptom survey) such as:
- Words sliding around on the page
- Fluctuating blur
- Headaches
- Eye strain
- Double vision
- Loss of place or skipping words or lines when reading
- Slow reading with frequent mistakes
- Frustration with and avoidance of reading and school work, which can lead to behavior issues and problems staying on task
Call us to schedule an examination if you suffer from any of these symptoms!
