✨ Happy National Stretching Day! ✨

Just like our muscles need a good stretch to stay flexible, coordinated, and strong…so do our visual systems! 👀💪

In Vision Therapy, we “stretch” the eyes and brain every day! We are building better tracking, smoother teaming, stronger focusing, and more efficient visual processing. Little movements add up to big changes. And just like physical stretching, consistency is key.

If you or someone you love has been struggling with headaches, reading fatigue, double vision, visual stress, or trouble sustaining attention…it might be time to give those visual skills a proper stretch with a functional vision exam.

:Myth of the week:
You don’t need vision therapy if you have 20/20 vision.

“Having 20/20 vision does not mean you have ‘perfect’ vision.”

Technology has no place in kindergarten through eighth grade (K-8). Research shows that learning through books, writing with pencil and paper, and engaging in dialogue with real people builds the strongest foundation for education. These traditional methods provide not only cognitive benefits but also emotional and practical skills that prepare children for lifelong learning.

One striking example comes from the Waldorf School of the Peninsula in Silicon Valley, a prestigious private school attended by the children of technology executives. Despite its location in the heart of the tech industry, the school has zero technology in grades K-8.

On its website, the school states: “Brain research tells us that media exposure can result in changes in the actual nerve network in the brain, which affects such things as eye tracking (a necessary skill for successful reading), neurotransmitter levels, and how readily students receive the imaginative pictures that are foundational for learning.”

This approach reflects a deliberate choice: to prioritize human interaction, creativity, and deep learning over early exposure to screens. It serves as a reminder that sometimes, less technology can mean more growth.

Myth of the week:
Vision therapy is not necessary because glasses can correct all vision problems.

FACT: while eyeglasses and contact lenses can correct blurry vision, corrective lenses cannot treat vision problems such as eye tracking, eye teaming and visual perceptual problems.

With vision therapy, the eyes and brain learn to communicate better-facilitating a permanent change in your vision. 👓

Myth’s of the week:
Vision therapy is only for kids, not adults.
FACT: vision therapy can be effective for people of all ages.

While children have been shown to respond well to vision therapy, adults can benefit from the specialized treatment program as well. The efficacy of the program is dependent on the type of vision condition, not the age of the patient.

Unfortunately, many patients believe that they are too old to correct their vision condition, and they have missed their opportunity. However, it is important to understand that neuroplasticity enables the brain to remain dynamic and flexible throughout one’s life.

Let VISION & LEARNING MONTH begin🤓

👀📚 Children’s Vision & Learning Month is HERE! Did you know that as much as 80% of what a child learns in school comes through their eyes? When vision isn’t working efficiently, learning can feel like climbing a mountain with no summit in sight. This month, we’re raising awareness about the vital connection between vision and academic success. Let’s make sure every child has the visual skills they need to thrive in the classroom and beyond. 🌟
