Welcome to Our Blog!

I will be posting information regularly to share insights and inspirations about vision and how it affects your daily life.

My Journey with Vision Therapy

In early 2015, one of my adult patients had a lazy eye (her eye turned in). She brought an article about a new technique to treat her condition and asked if I was familiar with it. At the time, I wasn’t, but my curiosity was piqued. I decided to investigate.

What I found was fascinating. That summer, I began taking courses to expand my knowledge.

A Personal Experience with Vision Therapy

A few months later, my younger daughter, who was in grade six, started experiencing reading difficulties. She complained that the words moved on the page and had to read aloud to understand. Despite earning A’s and B’s, she struggled more as she progressed in school.

In the fall of grade seven, I took her for an assessment. The results showed she had tracking issues and couldn’t keep her eyes aligned on the text. Her reading grade had dropped to a C, and she had reached her limit.

After completing the OEP Vision and Learning course, I enrolled her in Vision Therapy. Over 35 sessions, she improved her tracking, focusing, and visualization skills. Her grades returned to A’s and B’s, and reading became easier. She no longer experienced fatigue or frustration.

Helping Others Through Vision Therapy

For the past seven years, my team and I have helped children and adults with similar challenges. Strengthening their visual skills also boosted their confidence. They could finally process information more effectively and feel secure in their learning.

Imagine no longer feeling like you’re falling behind. Think of the opportunities that open up when reading and learning become effortless!

Opening a Full-Time Vision Therapy Clinic

Seeing the profound impact of Vision Therapy, I decided to open a full-time clinic. My team and I are committed to helping individuals overcome vision-processing challenges. It is incredibly rewarding to be part of their journey toward a more fulfilling and confident life. Stay tuned for new latest updated blogs. Contact us know.
