Testing and Treatment Costs for Vision Therapy

As our former patients will tell you, vision therapy is a treatment that truly can transform your child’s life, eliminating the visual barrier that’s been hampering him or her academically and socially. 

All major insurance companies offer policies that pay for vision therapy.  We're happy to help to determine if your particular policy covers vision therapy, providing you with the questions you need to ask your insurance company or HR department.

Testing

Pre-Test Assessment and Examination Assessment

Our standard functional vision testing begins at $300. If the initial exam uncovers signs of a serious vision problem caused by traumatic brain injury, strabismus or amblyopia, additional testing will be required to properly diagnose the problem, and the cost could be $400-500.

Patient Education Visit (Free)

After completing the Functional Vision Test and/or the Perceptual Testing Assessment, a developmental optometrist will review the results of the testing and create an individualized treatment plan.

Both the results of the testing and our doctor’s prescribed treatment plan will be presented by Patient Education Coordinator to the patient and/or the patient’s legal guardian(s) at a free Patient Education Visit.

The purpose of the Patient Education Visit is to provide ample time to discuss the testing results and treatment plan as well as answer any questions that you may have.

Treatment 

A vision therapy session will cost between $175 and $200, but your overall costs will vary depending on the vision problem. Typical treatment can range anywhere from $1,000 - $9,000. Your costs will be fully explained to you during the Patient Education Visit.

We’re well aware of the expense of this program, especially considering many people pay for the expense out of pocket. However, considering the number of people we’ve helped and the lives we’ve transformed, it’s no wonder that many of our patients agree that the treatment costs were well worth the expense.
