Vision Therapy

A program of visual activities and exercises prescribed to improve visual skills and processing, often used to treat conditions like amblyopia, strabismus, and convergence insufficiency. Vision therapy can include in-office sessions and at-home exercises, and increasingly incorporates technology such as eye-tracking devices, serious games, and virtual reality applications to improve engagement and outcomes. For children especially, technology-assisted vision therapy addresses a key barrier of traditional treatments — low adherence due to the repetitive and unstimulating nature of conventional exercises like eye patching.
