VISION THERAPY
What is Vision Therapy?
Vision Therapy is a set of exercises and techniques that aim to improve visual and sensorial skills and abilities such as eye-hand coordination, reaction time, memory, concentration, and processing speed. These exercises are designed to help correct or improve conditions such as amblyopia, strabismus, binocular vision, focusing and tracking disorders and perception problems.
Vision Therapy can also be very beneficial for post-concussion vision issues.

Concussion Vision Therapy
Vision is frequently affected by a concussion, yet it is commonly overlooked as part of the rehabilitation process.
Concussions can have a profound impact on various aspects of life, such as work, mobility, and daily functioning due to the impact they can have on the visual system.
The most common problems following a concussion include
- Peripheral Vision Problems.
- Eye Tracking Deficits.
- Eye Teaming Deficits.
- Binocular Vision Dysfunction.
- Reading Problems and Comprehension Issues.
- Physical Symptoms: such as Nausea, Headaches, Dizziness, ...
Vision Therapy, also known as neuro-optometric rehabilitation, is a set of exercises and techniques designed to improve visual skills and visual processing.
Each vision therapy program is adapted to the individual and their specific goals. The number of sessions, the combination of therapy activities, and the duration of treatment vary depending on the diagnosis, patient compliance, and overall health. The vision therapy program can last from a few weeks to several months, and is supervised and monitored by our specialist.
People who have suffered brain injuries and people who have suffered concussions have different challenges and symptoms, as well as different vision therapy needs.
If you, or someone you know, is suffering from vision problems following a concussion or if you have any questions please call us on (281) 313-2020 or schedule an appointment online. We're here and ready to help.
Binocular Vision Training
What is Binocular Vision Training?
As you may have guessed from the name, vision training is a program of activities that are designed to help the visual system work more efficiently. Binocular vision training is a specific type of vision training and involves a series of activities that are individually prescribed in order to develop or improve the visual skills of the patient. In this case, binocular vision training aims to help individuals develop normal coordination and teamwork of both eyes so that they can work together more effectively.
There are a wide variety of different training activities that can be used, including mazes, puzzles, drawing, and reading. Most are fairly simple and straightforward, with the equipment needed to perform them being easily available in most homes. For example, a popular vision therapy exercise known as ‘tromboning’ involves holding a pen at arm’s length and moving it closer to your eyes and back out to distance again. This exercise works on improving focus and depth perception and strengthens the eye muscles.
Most binocular vision training takes place through a combination of in-practice appointments that is then supported through additional work at home. Every patient is different so the appointments will be tailored to your individual needs. Exactly how many sessions you will be recommended to have will depend on your circumstances and how well you respond to the training.
Why is Binocular Vision Training Important for Students?
Binocular Vision Training can help students overcome challenges and enhance their learning potential. It involves a series of personalized exercises that train the eyes and brain to work together more efficiently and effectively. Binocular Vision Training can improve eye alignment, eye movements, focusing ability, binocular fusion, stereopsis, and visual processing. It can also reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or surgery in some cases.
Research has shown that binocular vision therapy can improve reading fluency, comprehension, attention span, memory, confidence, and academic performance.
