Low Vision Services
People who have lost eyesight due to injuries or eye disease need special types of products to help them function as independently as possible. We offer a full range of these products through our office. Our paraoptometric staff is trained to demonstrate the use of some of these devices. They range all the way from a simple hand magnifier to a closed circuit TV system.
In addition, we can direct those who have low vision problems to products that will help them carry on the day-to-day tasks that they need to perform. In some cases we can set up a program for the low vision patient with the National Library of Congress to receive "books on tapes", which is a service for the blind.
Vision Therapy
Often, there are hidden and undetected visual skills deficiencies that interfere with learning. Eighty percent of everything a child learns is acquired through his or her visual system. According to the American Optometric Association, about sixteen percent of all children suffer from inadequate visual skills and up to ninety-four percent of children with reading problems have reduced visual skills. These visual skills dramatically impact ones ability to READ, WRITE, SPELL, CONCENTRATE, ETC.
If you or your child exhibits any of the following behaviors, you or you child may be suffering from a problem with inadequate visual function and/or visual perception. These visual problems can contribute to learning disabilities or, in some cases, can be mistaken or misdiagnosed as learning disabilities.
Seem bright, but struggles with reading.
Frequently loses place, skips word or whole lines of text.
Difficulty concentrating or comprehending reading material.
Reverses words, numbers or letters.
Is unable to sit still, cannot stay on task for any length of time.
Medication or tutoring has not been successful in improving school performance.
Works slowly or is easily distracted.
Trouble planning, starting, doing and finishing a task.
The good news is that inadequate visual/perceptual skills can be improved with optometric vision therapy. Vision therapy is remarkably successful in rehabilitating all types of vision problems including, but not limited to: amblyopia (lazy eye), strabismus (eye deviations in, our, up or down), ocular motor (tracking), eye teaming, focusing, and visual perceptual problems. When the program is complete, the benefits of vision therapy will last a lifetime!
