What is vision therapy?

Vision therapy is a structured, evidence-based treatment programme designed to improve how the eyes and brain work together. It treats conditions such as amblyopia, strabismus, convergence insufficiency, binocular vision disorders, and visual processing difficulties through customised optometric programmes.

Who can benefit from vision therapy?

Both children and adults benefit from vision therapy. It is commonly recommended for children with learning-related vision issues and adults experiencing visual discomfort, post-neurological visual problems, digital eye strain, or occupational vision demands.

Is vision therapy scientifically proven?

Yes. Vision therapy is supported by extensive clinical research and is practised worldwide under evidence-based neuro-optometric guidelines, including those of COVD and NORA. Treatment plans are customised following detailed diagnostic evaluation.

How long does a vision therapy programme take?

Duration varies by condition, severity, and individual response. Most programmes range from 12 to 36 structured weekly sessions, alongside prescribed home exercises. Your clinician will provide a personalised prognosis at your initial evaluation.

Do adults benefit from vision therapy?

Yes. Adults benefit significantly from vision therapy, especially for binocular vision problems, digital eye strain, post-concussion visual symptoms, neuro-visual rehabilitation following stroke or TBI, and occupational vision needs.

Is vision therapy the same as eye exercises?

No. Vision therapy is a medically supervised treatment programme that goes far beyond simple eye exercises. It involves structured activities, specialised clinical instruments, and expert monitoring to improve visual function and neurological integration.
