All of our doctors specialize in children's vision and in vision therapy for adults and children with a wide range of vision disorders (see list below).

Children may have 20/20 eyesight, yet still have inaccurate eye movements, inadequate focus ability, insufficient coordination of the two eyes, and/or visual perceptual disorders. Children with such vision disorders frequently struggle and fail to live up to their potential. Such children are often labeled as ADD, ADHD, or learning disabled.

When children with learning-related vision disorders have 20/20 eyesight, their difficulties with visual processing or function are often undetected during a routine eye examination. A comprehensive Eye Exam is needed to detect these conditions. Successful treatment of these disorders allows children to benefit more from classroom instruction and to achieve at higher levels, without the need to struggle. See our Vision Quiz section to learn more about the symptoms of learning related vision disorders.

Our Office provides:

  • Comprehensive Eye Examinations for All Ages, including Infants and Preschoolers

  • Vision Therapy for All Ages

  • Treatment for Learning-related Vision Problems including Difficulties with Convergence Insufficiency, Reading, and/or Tracking Problems, etc.
