What Is Vision Therapy?
Vision therapy is a personalized program designed to improve eye dexterity, tracking, visual functions, perception, and eye skills. It’s crucial to improve the communication between your eyes and brain for effective visual processing. Our approach strengthens neural connections through evaluations, exercises, activities, and advanced technology, addressing issues from traumatic brain injuries to amblyopia (lazy eye).
Vision Therapy Benefits
Individuals of any age can benefit from vision therapy. If you experience light sensitivity, visual fatigue, double vision, dizziness, headaches, or have trouble with visual–intensive activities, our therapy can help. If you have any of the following or your child does, schedule an appointment with us so that we can get started on crafting a treatment plan for your needs.
Conditions Treated by Vision Therapy
At Eyecare Specialties, our expert Dr. Kelsey Starman can treat a range of conditions with our advanced vision therapy program tailored to you. We can treat binocular vision dysfunction, strabismus (crossed eyes), amblyopia or lazy eye, traumatic brain injuries, and ocular delays.
By retraining your brain, we can correct eye misalignment that leads to crossed eyes, improve amblyopia by enhancing eye coordination and reducing suppression, and working to restore
visual function and improve skills by creating compounding neural growth that helps relieve strain. Overall, we can improve eye tracking, focusing, visual reaction time, and visual acuity.
Please note that vision therapy does not improve your prescription, but rather improves how your eyes function in relation to your brain, as visual prescriptions have more to do with the length of the cornea than the brain-eye connection.
