I also remember wearing an eye patch as a young boy.
In and out of the eye doctor's office all my childhood, perhaps I was born to be a developmental optometrist.
Entering optometry school, I was not aware of how much the vision system affected learning.
I too, believed the myth that 20/20 eyesight was perfect vision.
Then I attended a special lecture my first year of school that really opened my eyes.
The speaker talked about how optometrists can help change the direction of a child's life by retraining dysfunctional vision skills.

Dr. Les Alsterlund does a thorough assessment that goes beyond a routine eye exam.
More than looking at a pair of eyeballs, the evaluation is looking at the whole person to see how they use their eyes vision in their everyday life.
Patients gain a better understanding of how vision works and what can be done to help them move beyond their visual barriers.
Dr. Les designs a step by step treatment plan to meet patients' individual vision needs and goals.
Contact Dr. Les to discuss you vision concerns, ask any questions or to set up an appointment.

Good vision skills are a prerequisite for doing well in school because it's largely how we gather information.
In fact, 80% of classroom learning is visual.
So, what if an undetected vision problem is interfering with your child's learning potential?
Studies show approximately 25 % of classroom children are affected by a functional vision disorder.
That number increases to 60% in the special education classroom or in juvenile detention.
Unfortunately, eye charts and school screenings do not test for learning related vision problems.

When a person experiences a traumatic brain injury, the results can be quite debilitating.
Rehabilitation for the patient requires a multi-disciplinary team, most often including a neuro-optometrist.
The majority of individuals recovering from traumatic brain injuries have some form of visual sensory and oculomotor dysfunction.
When these vision problems are not dealt with, it creates a significant gap in the rehabilitative process that interferes with recovery.
But because vision is learned, deficiencies can be retrained.
