Vision Therapy in Partnership with Cedar Rapids Therapeutic Solutions

At our practice, we’re proud to offer customized vision therapy services in collaboration with Cedar Rapids Therapeutic Solutions. Vision therapy is a non-surgical, personalized treatment program designed to improve and strengthen visual skills. It’s more than just 20/20 eyesight—it’s about how well your eyes, brain, and body work together.

What Is Vision Therapy?

Vision therapy is like physical therapy for your eyes and brain. Through guided activities and exercises, patients learn to improve coordination, focus, eye tracking, and more. This treatment is ideal for children, teens, and adults who may struggle with reading, learning, or recovering from injuries that affect vision.

  • Eye teaming and focusing issues

  • Lazy eye (amblyopia)
