Describe life BEFORE Vision Therapy

“For five years I had various symptoms all because of double vision. My balance was way off, so I fell a lot, walked into walls and stairs were a nightmare. I was uncomfortable in many everyday activities – reading, driving, grocery shopping, finding books at the library.”

Describe life AFTER Vision Therapy: “I’m not sure there are words to describe the feeling of freedom I have. The world is still and not spinning before my eyes. I don’t have to squint to see anymore. I am more open to going places now being able to walk and go up and down stairs without my husband’s assistance. I can even write and stay on the lines.”

Is there anything you would like to share with other patients who are considering Vision Therapy? “DO IT!!! The results are night and day. Don’t let your age hinder your decision. I used to think I would feel disoriented the rest of my life…not a way to live. It is so worth the time and money. Dr. Wilson and Kristen were such encouragers. What a great experience! Thank you a hundred times!”
