Alderwood Vision Therapy Center

Vision therapy is an individualized supervised treatment program designed to correct visual-motor and/or perceptual-cognitive deficiencies which have various causes, such as: stress, inadequate sensory-motor development, in some cases, contributing hereditary factors (i.e., crossed-eyes, wandering eyes, eye turns), and trauma to the nervous system (i.e., birth injury, brain trauma, closed head trauma, etc.). 

Vision therapy sessions include procedures designed to enhance the brain's ability to control eye alignment, eye movements, focusing abilities, and eye teamwork (binocular vision). Visual-motor skills and endurance are developed through the use of specialized computer and optical devices, including therapeutic lenses, prisms and filters. During the final stages of therapy, the patient's newly acquired visual skills are reinforced and made automatic through repetition and by integration with motor and cognitive skills.
