Symptoms Treated by Vision Therapy
Learning-Related Vision Problems
Vision therapy can help manage and even correct learning problems related to your or your child’s vision. In some cases, some of these issues may be misdiagnosed as ADHD, dyslexia, or other learning, developmental, or behavioural problems.
Learning-related vision issues can include:
- Skipping or re-reading lines
- Poor reading comprehension
- Problems concentrating
- Flipping or reversing letters when reading
Strabismus & Amblyopia
Strabismus (crossed-eyes) and amblyopia (lazy eye) are conditions that affect your eyes’ orientation and could lead to permanent vision problems if not corrected. It’s very important to catch these issues as early as possible, as they can develop in children as young as 3 years old.
Binocular Coordination
Binocular coordination refers to how well your eyes work together. However, binocular deficiencies can affect your ability to read, write, play sports, and even safely drive a car.
Sports-Related Vision Issues
No matter the sport, you demand a lot from your eyes to help play your best. However, having deficiencies can affect your eye tracking, hand-eye coordination, and focusing abilities.
