Vision therapy is a transformative approach to eye care that goes beyond standard vision exams and corrective lenses. At Focal Point Vision, our tailored programs are carefully designed to address specific visual impairments through targeted exercises and the use of advanced therapeutic technologies. Here’s an in-depth look at how vision therapy can help treat a variety of conditions:

Strabismus (Crossed Eyes) 

Strabismus can disrupt the alignment and coordination of the eyes, leading to challenges in-depth perception and a compromised visual experience. Our vision therapy sessions include exercises that train the eyes to align correctly, fostering improved visual coordination and reducing the appearance of crossed eyes. Learn more about our approach on our Vision Therapy page.

Amblyopia (Lazy Eye) 

Amblyopia, or lazy eye, occurs when one eye develops differently and has poorer vision than the other. Our therapies focus on stimulating the weaker eye by engaging it in activities that promote visual input and processing. By encouraging the brain to acknowledge visual inputs from the amblyopic eye, vision therapy helps in balancing vision between both eyes.

Binocular Vision Disorder 

Binocular Vision Disorder involves challenges in coordinating eye movements, often leading to symptoms like eye strain, headaches, and blurred vision. Our approach targets the neurological pathways between the brain and the eyes, enhancing these connections to help patients achieve smoother and more synchronized eye movements, improving overall visual function

Learning-related Vision Disorders 

Visual challenges can significantly impact academic performance and learning abilities. Vision therapy assists in improving essential visual skills such as tracking, focus and visual processing that are crucial for reading, writing and comprehensive learning. Discover more about how we can assist on our Eye Exams page.

Convergence Insufficiency 

Patients with convergence insufficiency struggle with maintaining eye alignment during close tasks like reading. Our therapy programs include exercises that improve the eyes’ ability to converge and focus at close ranges, which is vital for comfortable and sustained reading.

Expanding the Benefits 

The benefits of vision therapy extend beyond treating specific conditions. It enhances overall visual health, boosts confidence and improves quality of life by enabling better engagement in educational, professional and personal activities.

Vision therapy is more than just corrective treatment—it’s a path to better visual health and functionality. Each session is crafted to meet the unique needs of our patients, ensuring personalized care that leads to effective results.
