To schedule a Vision Therapy appointment, please contact the Specialty Clinic at our Commonwealth office by calling (617) 396-8531. Please note that comprehensive eye examination records and a history of dilation are required for scheduling a binocular vision consult for vision therapy. You have the option to schedule the comprehensive eye exam in our Specialty Clinic, or have your doctor fax records from a recent eye exam to (617) 396-8517.
Our specialty is vision therapy, a unique and highly effective non-surgical treatment. Our doctors work with children and adults with visual problems such as lazy eye, crossed eyes, binocular vision dysfunctions, and focusing and tracking dysfunctions. This non-surgical treatment enhances visual processing and improves school/work performance.
These skill deficits can hinder an individual’s ability to sustain visual attention and process visual information. Symptoms of common vision dysfunctions include:
- Eye strain/fatigue
- Blurred vision
- Double vision
- Loss of place while reading
- Headaches
While glasses are a common solution, they may not fully resolve certain vision problems. In such cases, Vision Therapy emerges as the treatment of choice, offering a comprehensive approach to visual improvement.
What is vision therapy?
Vision therapy is a structured program of exercises performed under an optometrist’s supervision and personalized to fit the individual’s visual needs. We work with children and adults with visual problems such as lazy eyes, crossed eyes, binocular vision dysfunctions, and focusing and tracking dysfunctions through non-surgical treatment to help with visual processing and improve school/work performance.
Through the integration of in-office and home-based programming, our nationally recognized Vision Therapy specialists have designed a timely and cost-effective treatment regimen. While many of our patients are young, both adults and children can benefit and experience a big difference in their visual comfort and overall well-being.
