How does it work?

Based on the results obtained from the visual information processing evaluation, which is the outcome of the visual efficiency exam and the visoperceptive exam, as well as the patient's school, academic, work, or leisure needs, the optometrist prepares a personalized program of procedures aimed at developing and maximizing visual skills and integrating those skills with the other senses: auditory, balance, rhythm… These exercises are typically performed both periodically in the office and daily at home, in order to achieve the proposed objectives.

It is not about eye gymnastics, since we see with the brain; we work with it trying to make neural connections and/or reinforcing others.

With Vision Therapy, we are able to change the way the patient uses the visual system and consequently improve their academic, work, sports performance, etc., in addition to eliminating or reducing the symptoms that the patient initially presented. At the end of the program, through the repetition of exercises or activities, we can automate and integrate the changes, and these will start to become part of the patient without them having to make any effort to maintain them and without fear of the problems reappearing, since, as we mentioned earlier, we are working directly on the person's neurology, improving the brain function of their visual system.
