Abstract
Vision therapy is prescribed to treat diagnosed conditions of the visual system. Effective therapy requires visual skills to be developed until they are integrated with other systems and become automatic, enabling individuals to achieve their full potential. The goals of a prescribed vision therapy treatment regimen are to achieve desired visual outcomes, alleviate the signs and symptoms, meet the patient’s needs, and improve the patient’s quality of life. Vision therapy should only be expected to be of clinical benefit to patients who have detectable visual deficiencies. In response to the question, ”How effective is vision therapy in remediating visual deficiencies?,” it is evident that there is sufficient scientific support for the efficacy of vision therapy in modifying and improving oculomotor, accommodative, and binocular system disorders in the majority of patients of all ages for whom it is properly undertaken and employed.
Vision problems being treated with vision therapy include :
Amblyopia , strabismus , convergence insufficiency , other binocular vision problems , eye movement disorders , accommodative (focusing) disorders and other problems as visual-perceptual disorders, vision problems associated with developmental disabilities and vision problems associated with acquired brain injury (such as from a stroke) ……. etc.
But VT is mostly effective in :
• Convergence insufficiency. Patients who experience eyestrain, ”tired” eyes, or diplopia (double vision) while reading or performing other near work, and who have convergence insufficiency may benefit from orthoptic treatment. Patients whose outward drift occurs at distance rather than at near distance are less ideal candidates for treatment
Intermittent exotropia. This is often linked to convergence insufficiency.
