Vision Focused Therapy

Nearly 1 out of 4 children have a vision problem significant enough to affect their school performance.  Your child may struggle every day, but you may not know who you need help from or what kind of help your child needs.  Complaints and behaviors such as headaches, head tilting, watering eyes, rubbing their eyes, re-reading sentences, poor participation in sports, and lack of interest in coloring, writing, or reading, can all be red flags your child may have poor vision skills.

 

Visual skills are essential for school performance; these can be improved with our vision-focused therapy program.  Our program helps strengthen the brain-eye connection to improve visual system functioning and overall visual perception needed for school success. 

 

Our occupational therapists specialize in vision-focused therapy for kids ages 5-18 years to help cope with learning and/or behavioral problems associated with visual deficits.  Our OTs work hand in hand with local developmental optometrists to help identify these deficits and form a customized program.  Even if your child has 20/20 vision, they still may struggle with performing visually-demanding activities for a number of other reasons.
