The Economics of Vision

In today's high-tech world, children at school and adults on the job are frequently victims of visual overload. For most people, the visual supply may be adequate to handle everyday activity, but with the widespread use of computers, the explosion of the World Wide Web, and the rapidly flashing images of computer games and smart phones, more and more people are finding that their visual demand is on the rise. As any economist can attest, when demand exceeds supply, price increases! This price can include eyestrain, headaches, or reduced performance on the job or at school.

Too often corrective lenses are used simply as a crutch, supporting weakened eyes but not addressing the root problem. Our doctors understand this and hope to help you better the quality of your life by improving not just WHAT you see, but HOW you see. Vision therapy and therapeutic eyeglasses can give youngsters with undetected developmental vision problems a second chance at academic success. Individuals suffering from autism or pervasive developmental delays and victims of stroke and traumatic brain injuries can also benefit greatly from vision therapy.
