Ariel was a kindergartner who started to exhibit amblyopia symptoms that affected her quality of life at school and at home.

Olivia was a 3rd grader who started to experience blurry vision and words that moved on the page when reading and writing. After an examination, our team determined that her eyes had poor focusing skills, weak convergence ability, and borderline sufficient clarity of vision.
Through vision exercises and prescription eyewear, she was able to achieve 20/20 vision in both eyes!

After evaluating his eyes and vision, our team discovered he had poor control of his eye movements necessary for reading. After 10 weeks in home-based vision training, he achieved the reading efficiency of an 8th grader, reading nearly 200 words per minute!
