Children and adults with difficulties in eye coordination, depth perception, reading, attention, visual tracking may benefit. We also work with those looking to enhance visual performance for sports or are recovering from a concussion or other brain injury. Vision therapy is also effective for conditions such as amblyopia (lazy eye), strabismus (eye turn), and visual processing disorders.

After a concussion, vision therapy focuses on retraining how the eyes and brain work together. It may include activities for eye coordination, focusing, tracking, and visual processing—helping reduce symptoms like headaches, blurry vision, and eye strain so patients can return to school, work, and sports more comfortably.
