Boost Academic Performance with Vision Therapy

I like going [to] vision therapy. Now I can read books better. In softball, when I bat, the ball looks clear. I like school now that I can see things clearly. Allie had difficulty reading and writing. She was resistant to doing schoolwork. Since vision therapy, Allie has improved in her ability to read. She is now reading textbooks that a year ago I had to read out loud to her. She even chooses reading as a free time activity now! Her spelling and math have improved as well.

Vision therapy has made Aubrey more confident in herself. I can’t believe the change in her from when we first started. We can’t thank you enough for all your help! How did Vision Therapy help you? “It helps me read. It helps me do my work. It helps me do more things than I was able to do. I’m able to see better. Thanks for everything you have done for me.”

Brennan had troubles with reading and focusing at school. He also was having problems with his coordination. He has improved in his reading, piano playing, eye-hand coordination and focusing in school. We were very pleased with your services and how flexible and pleasant everyone was!!!

Not only did we see an improvement in Cole’s performance on his vision homework, we have noticed a significant improvement in his reading. Prior to starting Vision Therapy he was not reading at grade level and tested in the lowest 1% on the standardized test. He began VT in January and by May he was reading at grade level and scored at an average level on the standardized test.

Karlene had struggled so much learning to read and write. And all the skills I learned to help her dyslexic brother didn’t seem to help her. So I knew it was something else. Since vision therapy I have noticed a huge improvement in both skills; at least 1 whole grade level.

Optometric Phototherapy Success Story!! We noticed something seemed wrong with Logan’s vision and it wasn’t being found in a normal vision screening. School was very hard for him. Logan is now riding a bike, eating food much neater and negotiating stairs without difficulty. I am excited to see how the light therapy affects his ability to perform in hockey. We started two weeks before the end of the last season, and he started handling the puck, something he had not wanted to do all season. In fact, I wasn’t even going to sign him up for hockey next year, but now he is very excited to play again!! Check back next year and I will let you know how things have gone!!

Vision Therapy and the staff at New Horizons provided us with very concrete and specific ideas for how to address areas of difficulty for Marielle. We appreciated how measureable and objective the changes she made were. Vision therapy definitely improved Marielle’s abilities in reading, writing, and processing school work. Marielle is now less fatigued when reading independently. She is more willing to read independently and reading speed has improved.

Mariya was struggling in school and reading was a problem. She found it difficult to find her place on a page and look from the board to her assignments on her desk. Mariya has improved in all areas of school, but most importantly she is less moody, and we have noticed a dramatic decrease in temper tantrums. I am so grateful that Mariya has a chance at normal relationships.
