A success story from a client at The Vision Therapy Center: Both my boys have gone through vision therapy and have developed into AWESOME readers. Please understand there is way more to vision than eyesight, so don't get stuck in the trap of saying "My child's vision is good, we had that checked." We were created in a complex way by an amazing God.

A success story from a client at The Vision Therapy Center: My son, Ben (age 7 yrs old), would often tell me he could see double. In jest, I would say, “I can do that too.” But what I wasn’t realizing was Ben was not “making” his eyes see double like I was. When Ben started reading, I noticed his left eye would go out to the left as he read. I still didn’t realize it was a real vision problem. After all he was able to read fine.

A success story from a client at The Vision Therapy Center: As a baby, Alex was so happy, even when he was sick. He smiled and laughed often. I never thought twice about him not responding to the musical bear mobile that hung over his crib! Every three months after birth, we would go to his healthy check with his pediatrician. He was always "right on target." But how did they REALLY know?

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.

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.

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."
