visual rehab tools

Accurate vision is an important part of performing well at work, school, and in other everyday activities. In certain cases, however, medical conditions or injury may lead to visual impairment. For individuals with functional limitations resulting from visual impairment, visual rehabilitation can improve or restore everyday abilities. The most effective model for visual rehabilitation is one in which a patient receives input from his or her optometrist, medical doctor, psychologist, neurologist, and other allied health professionals to create an individualized visual rehabilitation plan.

Visual Rehabilitation Procedures

Visual rehabilitation involves constructing an individualized treatment plan to address each person’s unique issues. In some cases, this may involve occupational therapy to make a person’s environment easier to navigate. For many patients, however, vision therapy offered by an optometrist is an excellent way to improve or fully restore visual functioning.

Analogous to physical therapy for the vision system, vision therapy involves special exercises designed to retrain eye-brain circuits to perform more normally.  Patients may be asked to view objects through special prism lenses, focus on an object as it moves, coordinate eye-body movements, or perform computerized tasks. Over time, these exercises improve visual deficits and reduce functional impairment.

Reviews From Our Satisfied Patients

  • "I can’t say enough great things about Elemental Eyecare. Dr. Gabby was so amazing with our special needs daughter. Highly recommend!!"
    Brittaney O.
  • "Both of my kids loved Dr Gabby. They have been seeing another doctor for over 12 years, but the transition to Elemental Eyecare was super easy. My son had a sudden change in his vision and they got us in within days. We are so happy we do not have to drive to Eugene anymore to see a pediatric specialist."
