Common Questions
What is vision training / vision therapy?
Vision therapy is a personalized, optometrist-directed program that strengthens how the eyes and brain work together—skills like eye teaming, tracking, focusing, and depth perception. It can help with reading difficulties, concussion-related issues, lazy eye or eye turns, and athletic visual performance.
Who can benefit from vision training?
Children and adults. We commonly help students struggling with reading or attention, patients recovering from concussion or brain injury, people with eye turns/amblyopia, and athletes seeking sharper visual processing.
How is this different from a regular eye exam?
A routine exam checks eye health and clarity (your prescription). Our assessments go deeper—measuring how your eyes work together, how they track, how quickly they change focus, and how efficiently your brain interprets visual information.
Does vision training work for adults, or just kids?
Adults can make meaningful gains. While children’s brains are more adaptable, we see strong improvements in adults, especially with consistent practice and a targeted plan.
How long will I need vision training?
Programs are individualized. Some patients progress in a few months; others with complex needs may work longer. After the initial evaluation, we’ll outline your plan and milestones.
Do you need a referral? How do I book?
No referral is required. You can book directly online or contact us with questions at admin@londonvision.ca or (519) 204-7230.
Is this covered by insurance?
Coverage varies by plan. Many extended health benefits cover optometric services or therapy sessions. We can provide detailed receipts and documentation for reimbursement.
What happens at the initial evaluation?
We assess visual skills beyond eyesight: eye teaming, tracking, focusing, visual-motor integration, and how vision impacts reading and comfort. You’ll receive findings and a tailored plan.
