Uncomfortable reading or screens.
Blur, tired eyes, or difficulty sustaining comfortable near work may be reasons to discuss your visual function with an eye-care provider.
Vision Therapy In Regina
Understand your vision.
Find your next step.
Personalized assessment and doctor-supervised vision therapy for children and adults in Regina, Saskatchewan.
Whether reading feels uncomfortable, your eyes struggle to work together, or visual tasks have become difficult after an injury, we start by understanding your concerns.
Beyond the eye chart
What is vision therapy?
Vision therapy uses a planned sequence of visual activities to work on specific visual skills under an optometrist’s supervision.
The assessment looks at how your visual system functions during everyday tasks. Skills we consider include focusing, using both eyes together, and moving the eyes accurately.
The approach depends on the condition and the individual. An assessment helps us decide whether therapy, another option, or further investigation is the appropriate next step.
Know what you are experiencing
Concerns worth discussing.
These concerns can have different causes. Tell us about your symptoms so we can help you arrange an appropriate assessment.
Using both eyes together.
We assess concerns involving eye alignment and binocular vision, including convergence insufficiency, amblyopia, and strabismus, to explore suitable care options.
Changes in daily function.
Tell us about visual difficulties affecting schoolwork, work tasks, or life after a concussion or brain injury. Assessment findings guide any recommendations.
Children & Families
A closer look at your child’s visual skills.
If your child finds reading or close work uncomfortable, an assessment can explore whether a visual difficulty is contributing.
Bring examples of the tasks your child finds difficult and any relevant eye-care or treatment history. We discuss the findings with you and explain whether there is a visual problem to address.
For example, convergence insufficiency affects how the eyes work together at near. Appropriate treatment can address the diagnosed visual difficulty. Vision therapy does not treat dyslexia or guarantee better school performance.
Our vision therapy team includes Justine and Danica, who bring encouragement and a personal connection to working with young patients.
Adults
Care for your everyday visual demands.
Vision therapy assessment is available for adults as well as children.
We discuss difficulties with reading, screens, focusing, or binocular vision in the context of your eye-care history and daily activities. If you have amblyopia or strabismus, we consider your history and findings when explaining options and realistic goals.
If symptoms began after concussion or brain injury, let us know about the injury and any other providers involved. Visual assessment is considered alongside your broader care; a therapy program is recommended only when appropriate.
We also welcome questions about sports vision training and the visual skills involved in athletic performance.

Practical Questions
Before your assessment.
What should I bring?
Bring your current glasses and information about relevant eye-care history or treatment. When you call, ask whether our team needs any records or forms before your visit.
How long does vision therapy take?
There is no single schedule for every patient. The proposed program depends on the assessment findings, the condition, and your goals. We explain the recommendation before you decide whether to proceed.
What does it cost, and is it covered?
Call our team for current assessment fees and questions about therapy costs or insurance documentation. Coverage depends on your own plan; confirm the details with your insurer.
Will I definitely need therapy?
No. An assessment helps identify the visual concern and appropriate next steps. The recommendation may involve therapy, another approach, or further evaluation.
How can a provider refer a patient?
Our Referring Providers page explains useful referral details. Call the clinic to confirm the appropriate submission method before sending patient information.
