About 80% of
information taken into the body goes through the
visual system. If the eyes are not working
efficiently they will not take in information
efficiently.
What is Vision?
There are two aspects to vision.
Physical - the eyes must be
physically capable of seeing clearly and
comfortably for as long as they need to.
Interpretive / Perceptual -
the brain must be able to interpret and
understand what is seen so that it makes sense.
What is Vision Therapy?
Vision Therapy or VT is that part
of optometric care devoted to developing,
improving and enhancing people's visual
performance. Behavioural optometrists have
developed and used Vision Therapy to ...
Prevent vision and eye
problems from developing.
Develop the visual skills
needed to achieve more effectively at school,
work or play.
Enhance functioning on
tasks demanding sustained visual effort.
Compensate for vision and
eye problems which have already developed.
Through Vision Therapy, people are able to
