Vision Therapy
Visual Therapy Applications
Patients whose 3-dimensional perception is weak or doesn’t exist for any reason can be treated at our Visual Therapy Center.
Treatment using vision therapy devices, exercises, and methods, which have been developed and in common use in the USA for years, doesn’t strengthen the eye muscles but ensures that both eyes can be used simultaneously, become more coordinated and flexible, and work faster and in better coordination with the brain. After the brain-muscle coordination is achieved, perception exercises ensure that the brain combines the images sent by the eyes in a more fine and detailed way, achieving 3-dimensional perception. So, the two eyes become capable of functioning at their maximum capacity.
