Remote Vision Therapy

Remote Vision Therapy

Remote vision therapy is a modern approach that leverages digital platforms to deliver therapeutic exercises and treatments to patients from the comfort of their own homes. This method is particularly beneficial for individuals who have difficulty accessing in-person care due to geographical, mobility or scheduling constraints. 

Through the use of video conferencing and specialized software, our vision therapists can work on activities with the patient, provide real-time feedback and direct the progress of the vision therapy program. Remote vision therapy can address a variety of vision issues, including but not limited to convergence insufficiency/binocular dysfunction, eye movement dysfunction, visually related learning problems and visual perceptual problems, by offering personalized exercises and guidance. This approach not only increases accessibility to essential eye care services but also allows for more frequent and consistent follow-up, leading to potentially better outcomes for patients.

Ideally, we see the patient in person for one vision therapy session, including the provision of all home therapy equipment needed.  Subsequent vision therapy sessions are conducted remotely.  Whenever possible, vision therapy progress evaluations (done every 8-12 weeks) are conducted in-office.  (In the case of patients who have been referred by another optometrist, progress evaluations may be done with that doctor.)
