Regarding difficulties in learning, it is known that a large part of them is due to poor development of visual skills. All of these can be resolved with the help of optometrists.

The main visual skills we are talking about are:

We can define eye mobility as the ability to focus the eyes on a point of interest, follow moving objects, and focus on objects precisely and effectively. They are especially important when reading and playing sports.

• Enfoque: The ability to focus on distant and near objects and change that view quickly and accurately.
• Binocular Vision: The ability of the two eyes to work together correctly. When we look at an object, both eyes must focus on the same point and a single common image must be created with the information from both eyes. This process is essential for developing so-called depth perception.
• Depth Perception: This allows us to determine the distance between objects and see them in three dimensions.
• Visual Memory: The ability to form and store mental images for future use or to create new images.
• Visual Discrimination: The ability to recognize and distinguish a familiar image from a sentence.

These treatments, performed on the optometry branch, are successfully applied in the optometry clinic.

Vision therapy for children is also applied to children who have the same problems. These eye problems should be treated early in children. Otherwise, the eye problem may progress further. Especially school-age children should talk to an eye specialist and have their eyes checked.

Our vision therapy clinic, located in Oakville BC, offers you and your children successful eye treatments. In this way, it is possible to have much healthier eyes.
