Good eyesight is not only seeing the eye chart well, but also how the two eyes work together, track moving objects, and shift focus between near and distance tasks. If these skills of coordination are weak, eyeglasses alone may not solve the reading problems, headaches or visual fatigue. Vision Therapy Clinic in Niramay Indore India Eye Care, Dr Birendra Jha is offering structured vision therapy programs for children and adults with binocular vision and eye coordination difficulties.
Vision therapy is a supervised, structured program of eye exercises and activities designed to improve specific visual skills such as eye coordination, focusing ability, eye tracking, and the way the brain processes visual information from both eyes together. Vision therapy addresses the coordination of how the eyes and brain work together in a visual system. Glasses only address how light focuses on the retina.
It is often recommended along with other treatments, for some types of squint or amblyopia, and for functional visual difficulties in children who have difficulty reading and near-work despite normal eye examinations.
Our eye specialist in Indore may suggest vision therapy for:
• Convergence insufficiency — difficulty aligning the two eyes for near tasks
• Some types of squint (strabismus), plus other treatment
• Amblyopia (lazy eye) as an adjunct to patching
* Difficulty with eye tracking affecting reading fluency
• Poor accommodation of the eye
• Vision problems caused by long screen hours
• Visual problems after concussion in some cases.
See our clinic if you or your child have any of the following symptoms:
• Words that appear to move or double when reading
• Getting lost in a line of text often when reading
• Headache or eye strain with near work
• Avoiding reading or close work
• Difficulty holding attention during close visual tasks
• Diplopia, particularly with prolonged reading or screen time
• Children with poor hand eye coordination.
A binocular vision assessment consists of a test of eye alignment at near and distance, convergence ability, focusing flexibility and eye tracking skills as well as a standard refraction and eye health check. This thorough assessment helps determine whether vision therapy is likely to be beneficial, and which specific skills need to be targeted.
A typical program at our eye care specialist in Indore clinic might involve:
•Supervised in-clinic exercises for convergence and focus skills
• Home exercises prescribed to maintain progress between visits
• Use of specific tools such as prism lenses or computerized training programs
• Regular monitoring of progress to adjust the treatment plan
• Co-ordination with squint or amblyopia treatment, if relevant.
Dr. Birendra Jha, with his background in pediatric ophthalmology in Indore, can detect subtle problems of binocular vision which are often missed during a routine eye check, especially with children who are just labeled as inattentive or slow readers. Structured and monitored, therapy is goal-oriented instead of open-ended.
