Vision Therapy Helps End Writing Frustration
Thursday, June 10th, 2010
Steve, Danny and Julia Krueger are all smiles after Danny's vision therapy.
A success story from a client at The Vision Therapy Center.
Danny was diagnosed by Dr. Knueppel as having a convergence disorder when he was 8 years old. His eyes were working independently and not forming a single image.
His symptoms were not typical from what I have read. He was an early reader, loved learning, reading and had great hand writing. We homeschooled Danny starting at age 4 using the Sonlight curriculum and he excelled. Since he was young he did most of his work orally. We took many field trips and did lots of science experiments. Math was done using spaceships and a stairway. This worked well with his kinesthetic learning style. We really didn’t have any learning or vision related concerns until he turned 8. (more…)

Vision Therapy Helped Relieve His Migraines
Monday, May 10th, 2010
Congratulations, Westley!
A success story from a client at The Vision Therapy Center:
Migraines were becoming a way of life for Westley. It is a good thing that we homeschooled because Westley would have a migraine five to seven days per week. We did as much school work as we could, and then he laid down in bed with a pillow over his head.
Of course, we tried everything from getting his eyes checked, to blood tests, an MRI, and neurologist appointments. The worst thing of all was the fact that there is no migraine pain medication for a person under the age of 12.
Westley was 8 years old when we finally found The Vision Therapy Center. (more…)

The Smile of Success – Danielle’s Success with Vision Therapy
Friday, October 30th, 2009
Waking up in the morning with a smile on your face is not always easy, but for Danielle, it used to be a true challenge. Just thinking about the school day she had ahead of her was enough to bring on a bad mood. Reading was a struggle for Danielle, and her grades were below average. Top this off with three to four hours of homework every night and you have a very good reason for waking up on the wrong side of the bed.
After a thorough exam with Dr. Knueppel, it was revealed that Danielle’s learning difficulties were related to a hidden visual problem. This would explain why Danielle used her finger as a marker when reading, read slowly, had poor reading comprehension and sometimes confused or reversed letters or words. (more…)

Relief for Jimmy = Relief for Mom
Friday, October 30th, 2009
When Jimmy first came in for a vision exam, he was in the fifth grade. During the summer, on the weekends, and during vacations he was easy-going and happy-go-lucky in disposition.
Although Jimmy enjoyed school very much and really liked his teacher, he was having difficulties in math, English, spelling and writing. He was working extremely hard and getting pretty good grades, but he was still described as “not working up to his potential.” (more…)
