Vision & Learning

Treatable eye-movement problems (convergence insufficiency) and visual information processing problems can impair a person's ability to read and learn.  Remember that 70-90% of our classroom learning comes via our visual system. 

If a person's visual system is not functioning optimally, the person may suffer poor performance in school and life.  It is very difficult to achieve a high level of academic success with visual and ocular-motor problems.  Fortunately, Vision Therapy is here to help.

We believe that no child should be limited because of poor vision . That's why Vision Source donates to Optometry Giving Sight and is a platinum level sponsor. 

We also believe in promoting eye health in Vancouver and making sure that it is affordable for all. That's why we started the See for Life Campaign and our FREE eye-glasses promotion.
