Who Benefits from Vision Therapy?

Vision therapy is a form of physical therapy that benefits both children and adults who are experiencing vision problems. Vision issues may be related to a wide range of conditions, including traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), strokes, or learning disabilities such as dyslexia.

Vision therapy is more than just eye exercises. Your doctor at OCVT will develop a progressive, in-office program tailored to your needs. Our team uses prisms, filters, and other specialized tools to help you improve your visual skills. Our goal is to help you resolve visual processing or oculomotor problems that interfere with your learning, daily activities, or comfort.
