Vision And Learning
Did you know that learning is 80% visual?
Stuents may see 20/20, but vision skills are more extensive than sight.
Learning is 80% visual. Visual information processing, visual motor and visual thinking skills are important for learning.
Signs of learning related vision problems are:
Visual information processing problems: poor reading comprehension, reversal of letters and words, poor memory
Visual motor problems: poor hand writing, trouble catching a ball, clumsy
Eye Teaming problems: double vision, words move on page, tired, rubbing eyes
Eye Tracking: skips lines, loses places, keeps places with finger, confuses small words
Focusing: blurry vision near/far, poor copying skills, avoids reading
Symptoms of vision and learning problems
Treatment for learning related vision problems
A neuro vision exam is needed to evaluate children's vision skills, including visual information processing.
Lens thearpy can help the child sustain near work attention.
Neuro vision training can give them the skills to carry through schoool with better visual attention.
Our doctor and trainers work at the child' level and help them level up for vision skills.
Progress evaluation after every 10-12 sessions are important to see if progress are made and if there need to be a change in lenses or in the direction in the training.

Success stories
A letter from a 10 yo child with left eye turned out, sharing what she learned. This is after ten sessions of vision therapy.
Carson's mom: He has eye problems when focusing on the near object. He skips word while reading books. After neuro vision training, he can control his eyes to focus on reading. He has no double vision any more. he can read more time than before without any headache. Neuro vision training helps kids to focus more on school work. I never think about this when he reads the book, skipping words. But Dr. Liang finds out and help him to train his eyes.
Bernie's Mom: I was worried about my child's visoin before. His vision is good after vision therapy now. It's best to compile with doctor's recommendations and training. Need to spend time to help him train at home too.
Vivian: I had difficulty reading fast, and long periods. It often gave me a headache. After neuro vision training, I can read faster and have less headaches. The vision has also broadened. The home exercises are short and simple, yet effective.
Kaylee's mom: My main concern for Kaylee before the neuro vision training were that she always skips words when reading, and reading pretty slow. After neuro vision training, Kaylee was able to read words faster and the chances of skipping words are less. Neuro vision training could actually help my daughter to focus more on her studies. Especially when she reads and writes. Her speeed is way faster than before the treatment.
Alex: After vision therapy, I have improved reading, less loss of place while reading, reduced strain/hurting of eyes, better peripheral vision, and less clumsy.
ZeFeng's sister: Ze Feing had poor focus, reading and writing concerns. After 20 weeks of neuro vision training, ZeFeng is writing faster and listens to the teacher more.
Bailey: Tristan have been noted to improve in sports, academic (Basketball, math). Reading speeds and comprehension got improved a lot. Also noted that his attention got improved and more responsible for his own stuff.
Jerry: I started off always tired when I read before vision therapy. I never enjoyed it before. I would always fall asleep. After completing neuro vision training, I can read without getting ttired and get my work done faster.
