Description
Vision therapy is a series of customizable exercises prescribed by an Optometrist or Vision Therapist to improve conditions like crossed eyes or lazy eye. Vision therapy helps patients learn and improve specific visual skills. For example, the accuracy of eye movements, eye control when focusing, and coordination of both eyes. We can train the eyes with various exercises through personalized Vision Therapy programs. These programs will help with conditions such as crossed eyes, lazy eye and double vision. Patients may experience headaches when reading and words may appear blurry. The may be struggling at school and have trouble seeing the blackboard and/or not be able to focus on one activity for longer than a few minutes. Vision Therapy will help improve all of these issues or make them disappear completely. At Ottawa Vision Therapy, we are a team of two Optometrists, Dr. Kirsten North and Dr. Estelle Saunders, and our Vision Therapist Rebecca Arbuckle. Together we will personalize a plan that addresses each patient's specific goals and vision needs.
