Vision Therapy
Vision Therapy, also called Vision Training, is an individual program of eye training procedures used to improve or correct certain vision problems. It involves a series of treatments during which carefully planned procedures are carried out by the patient under professional supervision in order to improve vision skills such as eye movement control, eye focusing and coordination, and the teamwork of the two eyes. To increase functional vision skills and sensory motor performance, individuals are evaluated and participate in therapy customized by Dr. Steven J. Curtis , O.D., FCOVD, and Shelley Ullom, MOT, OTR/L.
Neuro-optometric Rehabilitation
Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation is a therapy which utilizes optometric vision therapy, prisms, lenses, filters and occlusion to help stimulate parts of the brain which are not functioning to their highest potential, due to interruptions caused by brain injury. Brain injury from concussion, stroke, birth trauma (ADD/ADHD), physical trauma, can be treated with Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation.
Sports Vision Training
Sports vision training works on improving the visual abilities of an athlete that are most necessary for excellence in their sport. Dr Steven Curtis provides sports vision training to high school, college and professional atheletes, including some from the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Columbus Crew.
