Vision is about more than seeing clearly. Children also need their eyes to move, focus, and work together efficiently to read, learn, and participate in everyday activities.
When these visual skills aren't working properly, children may struggle with reading, schoolwork, concentration, or experience symptoms such as headaches, eye strain, or double vision.
Vision therapy is a personalized program designed to improve the way the eyes and brain work together.

Your child may benefit from a vision therapy evaluation if they:
Have difficulty reading or staying focused on schoolwork
Lose their place or skip words while reading
Avoid reading or become tired quickly during near work
Complain of headaches, eye strain, or blurred or double vision
Have trouble focusing between near and far
Cover or close one eye
Frequently squint or blink
Have difficulty copying from a board or screen
Struggle with eye-hand coordination or sports
These symptoms can sometimes be related to visual skills that aren't assessed during a standard eye exam.
Vision therapy may help improve skills such as:
Eye Tracking – moving the eyes smoothly and accurately while reading and following objects
Eye Teaming – using both eyes together comfortably and reducing symptoms such as double vision
Focusing – changing focus easily between near and far distances
Visual Processing – efficiently interpreting and responding to visual information

A vision therapy evaluation looks beyond how clearly your child sees. We assess how their eyes move, focus, work together, and function during visual tasks.
If we identify areas that need support, we'll create a personalized treatment plan. Therapy may include in-office sessions and activities to practice at home, with progress monitored throughout treatment.
If you notice your child struggling with reading, schoolwork, or visual tasks, a vision therapy evaluation can help determine whether their visual system may be contributing.

Vision therapy isn't just for children. Adults may also benefit from vision therapy for concerns such as double vision, eye strain, focusing difficulties, or visual problems following a concussion or brain injury. A comprehensive evaluation can help determine whether visual skills may be contributing to ongoing symptoms.
