Personalized vision therapy for children and adults. We take the time to understand your visual challenges and help you work toward the things that matter to you.
Vision therapy is a personalized program of activities designed to develop visual skills under an optometrist’s supervision.
Often compared to physiotherapy for the visual system, it looks beyond how clearly you see letters on a chart. An assessment explores skills such as focusing, eye teaming, and eye movements, alongside the challenges you experience in daily life.
We use your assessment findings and goals to determine whether vision therapy is appropriate for you and what a treatment plan could involve.
Whether the concern comes up at school, at work, or during recovery, the first step is understanding it.
For families concerned about uncomfortable reading or visual difficulties during schoolwork. An assessment can explore whether visual skills are contributing to your child’s challenges.
Discuss concerns such as eyestrain, focusing difficulties, or trouble using both eyes together. We also assess amblyopia and strabismus to explore suitable care options.
Assessment of visual concerns following concussion or brain injury, alongside your broader care. Sports vision training explores visual skills involved in athletic performance.
Tell us what you or your child are experiencing. We’ll help you arrange the appropriate next step.
We explore your visual skills, discuss your concerns, and explain the findings in clear language.
If therapy is recommended, we discuss your goals, the proposed program, and how progress will be reviewed.
