When undetected, vision can impact a child's ability to develop successfully in school, both socially and academically. Vision therapy provides non-invasive, non-surgical solutions to many vision challenges such as teaming and focusing issues. The doctors help children overcome vision related learning challenges and restores balance to their lives and to the lives of their families.
Services
Vision therapy is a program with a comprehensive set of exercises designed to support and enhance the development of visual skills such as eye teaming, focusing, tracking, pattern recognition, and visual memory. Vision therapy can be implemented at any age. The types of techniques used depend on the age of the child and the team supporting that child.
Dr. Denise Currier grew up with vision challenges of her own. In 2003, Denise was introduced to vision therapy and became Dr. Herzberg's patient. During her vision therapy treatment, Denise realized that the recommended eye exercises were dramatically improving her perception of the world. That was the moment when she became excited about vision therapy; she wanted to know more.
Our practice offers comprehensive vision evaluations as well as vision therapy and rehabilitation. We also provide recommendations for 504's (academic accommodation for students with medical problems) and Individual Educational Programs (IEPs) for children with learning differences. We know your time is valuable so we work hard to ensure that your wait is as short as possible.
A: Until recently parents were told that children did not require an eye exam until they were ready to start school but now we know this is much too late. Recent research on infants has shown that many parts of the visual system mature to adult levels by the age of six months. We examine babies and young children as well as non-verbal older children.
