Is Vision Therapy Right for You?

Vision therapy is a transformative solution for many individuals dealing with various visual challenges. To determine if you or a loved one is a suitable candidate for vision therapy, it's essential to understand the symptoms and conditions that may benefit from this specialized approach.

Typical Candidates for Vision Therapy

  • Children Struggling in School

    Children who exhibit difficulties with reading, writing, or maintaining attention in class may benefit from vision therapy. If a child is underperforming in school and conventional interventions have not yielded the desired results, vision therapy may be the solution.

  • Adults with Visual Discomfort

    Adults who experience frequent eye strain, headaches, or visual discomfort during reading, computer work, or other visual tasks may be candidates for vision therapy. These symptoms can often be linked to underlying vision problems that therapy can address.

  • People with Binocular Vision Issues

    Vision therapy can often improve problems with binocular vision, such as strabismus (crossed eyes) or amblyopia (lazy eye). Adults and children may benefit from treatment and exercises designed to align their eyes and improve visual function.

  • Convergence or Focusing Problems

    Individuals with focusing challenges or who struggle with convergence (the ability to bring both eyes together) — which can affect reading and other close-up tasks — may find relief and improved visual comfort through vision therapy.

  • Visual Processing Disorders

    Vision therapy can strengthen the brain-eyes connection and benefit those with difficulties processing visual information, which can impact perception and comprehension.

  • Post-Concussion Vision Problems

    Following a concussion, some individuals experience visual symptoms such as double vision or tracking difficulties. Vision therapy can help in regaining visual function and comfort post-TBI.


Personalized Treatment

Vision therapy is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Each therapy program is tailored to the individual's specific needs and challenges. Whether you're a child struggling in school or an adult dealing with visual discomfort, vision therapy offers a personalized path to visual success.

While the above indicators can provide insight into whether vision therapy might be beneficial, it's crucial to undergo a professional evaluation by an experienced optometrist or vision therapist. A comprehensive eye exam is necessary to uncover any underlying vision issues and determine whether vision therapy is the appropriate treatment.

I am so glad we were referred to vision therapy and the Woodbury Eye Clinic was a place on the list.... Dr. Cole was so kind and understanding. He explained things that made me so relieved. His team is amazing and they all made me feel at ease. I know we went to the right place for vision therapy.

I can't rave about Dr. Cole and the Woodbury EyeCare Clinic enough! Friendly, efficient staff and D... r. Cole's clinic, I'm convinced, is the ONLY clinic for neuro-optometry you want to visit. Absolutely sensational exam and initial diagnosis. I can't wait to meet again to review test results in depth and see the plan he puts together to treat my difficult condition. Alas, Google only offers 5 stars. I would have chosen 10 stars if it were an option. Truly amazing eye care!

I really like doctor Nguyen. I was not impressed with the follow up for eye therapy, which told me ... "here's some codes, call your own insurance." I mean, you have billing people who presumably get paid. I'm not going to spend my time doing it. The whole point is, you say I need the service, you all ultimately bill the service, you make money from me and my insurance. You can do the other leg work. That said, back to it.. The office is pleasant. I like everyone who has helped me otherwise, so if you take out paragraph 2, I would say this is one of the best eye clinics I've been to. Dr. Nguyen is very personable, helpful, and kind. I referred my husband here shortly after. I liked the gal who helped me pick out my glasses. So, even though the situation in paragraph two irritated the crap out of me, I'll still do a 5 star.

Dr. Nguyen and all the staff at Woodbury Eye Clinic make getting new glasses a breeze! The exam was ... extensive and the doctor carefully answered my many questions. She is also very friendly. My glasses were ready in less than a week. Pick up of the finished glasses was quick and easy even without an appointment. Thanks all!

Dr. Cole was very friendly and explained things very clearly. He also answered all my questions and ... didnt make me feel rushed. All the staff was very nice and friendly as well.

My 91-year-old grandmother had a stroke 9 months ago and lost a lot of her peripheral vision on her ... right side. Dr. Cole and his team have assisted her with slowly regaining some of that vision. The goal is not to get her driving again, but rather to just improve that peripheral vision so she can ambulate safely around her assisted living building. Not only has her vision improved, but so has her confidence and positive outlook. Having been very close to my grandmother for the majority of my life, I have watched how seniors are often treated as though there is no upside to aging. That is not the case at Woodbury EyeCare. In fact, we moved all of her eyecare from a different clinic that felt like a factory to Woodbury EyeCare because she has been treated so well. Thank you to everyone there for the outstanding work! We are very grateful!

This was my first experience at the Woodbury Eye Clinic. Dr. Nguyen made me feel comfortable from t... he get-go. She is extremely knowledgeable and takes time to listen to (and answer) any questions that you might have. I will definitely return to this clinic again for my yearly eye exam!
