Skill Building Classes for Your Eyes

Healthy vision is about more than whether you have 20/20 vision. The way you use your eyes is just as important.

Developing various visual skills can help you move your eyes more accurately, control how they focus and coordinate them better. Vision therapy helps sharpen these skills without surgery so you can make the most of your eyesight.

What Is Vision Therapy?

Vision therapy is backed by science and shown to improve key visual skills like object tracking and visual processing. It can be particularly useful for patients with:

Strabismus and amblyopia: eye conditions that cause the eyes to look in different directions.
Convergence insufficiency: eyes that don’t coordinate properly when looking at objects close up.
Accommodative insufficiency: eyes with problems adjusting or maintaining their focus to look at nearby objects.

Who Is Vision Therapy For?

Anyone with working vision can benefit from vision therapy, but it is often recommended for people who:

Have vision challenges due to a concussion.
Have learning disabilities (particularly children).
Have strabismus, amblyopia, convergence insufficiency, or accommodative insufficiency resulting from other factors.
Want to improve their ability to perform everyday visual tasks (like reading).

What Is Vision Therapy Like?

Most vision therapy sessions can be completed in 30 minutes to an hour. We design each session to focus on the specific needs of our patients, and some patients may be able to perform vision therapy at home or online once we have taught them certain exercises.

All sessions at our practice are supervised by our eye doctors, who may use the following tools:

Electronically-timed targets
Therapeutic lenses
Balance boards
Prisms, filters, and occluders (such as eyepatches)
