Develop the skills for clearer sight
Optometric vision therapy is a personalized program of exercises to train your eyes to move, partner, and focus better and train your brain to better process visual information.
Optometric vision therapy is used to treat amblyopia (lazy eye), and it also can help improve control of strabismus (eye turn). At Brenart, we also offer neuro-vision rehabilitation, a form of vision therapy for patients with visual symptoms following a brain injury.
