See what our vision therapy patients are saying:

My daughter felt very defeated and discouraged following her traumatic brain injury. After vision therapy, she had a huge improvement in reading and was able to complete schoolwork faster and with less headaches. She was no longer bumping into walls and had a huge improvement in overall mood (feeling hopeful about school again). I would highly recommend vision therapy to others, having seen the amount of progress my daughter has made thus far, and how it has affected her morale for the better.

Danielle S.

Dr. Yew’s evaluation, treatment plan and continuous dedication to my recovery was life changing. Vision therapy, paired with new glasses which included prisms, tints and filters allowed me to be able to see properly, helped with extreme sensitivity issues and pressure headaches that I suffered from.

Dayna S.

I have more confidence in day-to-day activities and feel much safer. I have a better attitude and am able to do more tasks effectively. I have been able to return to many activities that I had previously been unable to do since the car accident.

Riccardo P.

After getting the prisms in my glasses, I was able to use my laptop for longer, able to focus on words, able to read and write for longer, and my headaches were less frequent. I would absolutely recommend a Post-Concussion Vision Assessment. I wish I had known of this option sooner as it may have allowed me to return to some normal routines faster.

Grace W.

When my daughter first came to therapy, she would tilt her head to one side when reading or looking at her iPad. After therapy she no longer tilts her head at all. Her coordination has also improved a lot. I would recommend vision therapy to others because I see the changes in my daughter. The improvements were great.

Sophia F.

Vision therapy helped Tamara to quickly control her eyes in case of misalignment. It has also helped her to read her books without missing any letters or words. I would recommend vision therapy to others because it is really helpful and I noticed a great improvement in Tamara’s vision and eyes.

Tamara D.

William is able to read and write more fluently. He loses his place less often when reading. His decoding skills have improved and he is able to look more precisely through words from left to right. He is making less letter reversal errors in his writing and is able to copy information with greater accuracy and speed.

William G.

We’ve noticed a large boost of confidence in Miller, more fluency in her reading and when doing her math homework. She repeats less words/numbers when reading things. Her teacher advised that she has been more inclined to answer questions in class, and more confident when presenting to the class.

Miller R.

I am able to read for longer periods of time without double vision or my eyes giving out on me. My eyes are able to relax more, opening up my peripheral vision. Double vision has decreased, memory improvements, my awareness of where objects are in space has increased. I am able to multitask much better. Vision therapy has helped me in so many ways. As someone who suffered a bad concussion, my ability to relax my eyes and open up my peripheral vision has tremendously improved. No more tunnel vision - yay! My motion sickness has also decreased with slow deep breaths, as well as being introduced to blue tint lenses to help with light sensitivity.

Kristin B.

Daniel has experienced a strong improvement in his visual tracking (both eyes working together). We have seen an improvement in his coordination (ability to hit/catch an object moving toward him), and in his gross motor skills (like balancing while jumping on one foot etc). Vision therapy has helped us to see what changes have helped with Daniel’s vision but also to help determine next steps (what else can be done to improve the vision, mainly in his one eye).

Daniel R.

My daughter’s recall has improved significantly, which was shown by the big jump in her grades at school. Her report card for Term 1 is all A's and high B's. She's thrilled and it represents an improvement over the midterm report sent out in the fall. I feel that the vision therapy has played a key role in helping her feel more confident in school. Many thanks for all you have done to help her!

Ariadne T.

I reached a point after multiple concussions that I gave up and thought my quality of life would be different forever, and I would just have to adjust to what I couldn’t do. I didn’t realize how many issues I was having was rooted in my vision. It helped me resolve issues I didn’t even know existed. Anyone who has suffered multiple brain injuries and can’t focus like they used to or still have some lingering light sensitivity; vision therapy helps immensely!

Laura S.

Jordanna has more awareness of the space around her. Before vision therapy, she was bumping into people and furniture and now I notice this happens less. She does not knock over items on the dinner table the way she used to. She is also more willing to be on her stomach. She has the confidence to go on a balance board and I notice at home that she will climb furniture and sit on top of the couch or balance herself on the arm of the recliner. She also likes to walk on the curb of the sidewalk.

What is Vision Therapy?

Vision therapy is a non-surgical, personalized program of activities designed to improve visual skills and visual information processing abilities. Unlike glasses or contact lenses, which correct eyesight, vision therapy targets how the brain and eyes work together, enhancing abilities such as eye teaming, eye focusing, eye tracking, and eye-hand coordination. Visual information processing refers to the brain’s ability to interpret visual information and is a critical part of vision.

Who does Vision Therapy benefit?

Approximately 80% of learning is done visually, which speaks to the importance of a strong visual system in academic and work performance. Vision therapy is a customized treatment program for a number of functional vision concerns, such as:

  • Strabismus (crossed eye or wandering eye)

  • Amblyopia (lazy eye)

  • Binocular dysfunction (eye teaming issue)

  • Accommodative dysfunction (eye focusing issue)

  • Oculomotor dysfunction (eye movement issue)

  • Learning-related vision problems

  • Post-concussion vision problems

What are the symptoms of a
Binocular Vision problem?

  • Double vision
  • Blurred vision at near
  • Fluctuating vision
  • Headaches or eyestrain associated with near work
  • Words running together when reading
  • Vision worse at the end of the day
  • Skipping/rereading/omitting words while reading
  • Using a finger as a marker while reading
  • Head tilt or closing an eye while reading
  • Difficulty copying from the chalkboard
  • Avoidance of reading or near work
  • Holding reading material close
  • Writing uphill or downhill
  • Reading comprehension declining over time
  • Letter or word reversal after the first grade
  • Inconsistent/poor sports performance

How do I start Vision Therapy?

1

Start with a Comprehensive Eye Exam

This is to ensure there are no other underlying eye health concerns impacting your vision.
This can be completed with your routine optometrist, and a subsequent referral can be
made to our clinic.

2

Book a Functional Visual Skills exam

This is to thoroughly detect for any inefficiencies in your visual system. Based on the
results, if indicated, you may be scheduled for a secondary Visual Information Processing
exam to evaluate processing functions such as visual discrimination, visual memory, and
visual motor integration.

3

Schedule Vision Therapy

Our doctors will plan a vision therapy curriculum catered to your visual needs. One-on-one
45-minute vision therapy sessions will take place on a weekly basis, with progress
evaluations taking place periodically. Your performance will be monitored closely, and
exercises are made more difficult to encourage further improvement over time.
