What is vision therapy?

Vision therapy is a specialty area for some medical professionals. Eye exercises may be an element of vision

therapy, but only in the context of a more specific treatment plan carried out under the

guidance of an ophthalmologist, optometrist, or eye specialist. The strengthening of the eye muscles may

be the aim of vision therapy. In addition, it can aid with eye tracking problems and assist in

retraining improper visual behavior. Vision therapy can be used to treat the following conditions, which often affect children but

can also impact adults: convergence insufficiency (CI), strabismus (cross-eye or walleye), amblyopia (lazy eye), dyslexia.
