Vision Therapy

Please, first and foremost, do not confuse Vision Therapy with eye exercise programs you have seen in infomercials on all-night cable stations. Do not confuse in-office, professionally administered Vision Therapy with self-help, self-directed exercise programs you see on lurid internet banners.

Vision care professionals supervise every aspect of Vision Therapy, including scientifically proven training techniques and use of prescription optical appliances.

Assessment, Diagnosis, Consultation, and Prescription

Vision Therapy begins with a comprehensive examination—not just the usual “read the letters on the chart” exam, but a series of sophisticated diagnostic tests designed to assess and evaluate every ocular function. Reviewing test results with patients, vision care professionals discuss Vision Therapy and other treatment options. In these consultations, optometrists may recommend or prescribe therapeutic, corrective, or prism lenses; optical filters, occluders, or eye patches. If an optometrist and patient agree Vision Therapy represents the most appropriate treatment, the optometrist may advise vestibular or balance equipment, timed electronic targeting mechanisms, visual-sensory-motor integration aids, or specialized therapeutic computer programs.

Physical Therapy for Common Visual Complaints

Vision Therapy provides patients with a non-surgical alternative, enabling them to overcome crossed-eyes, double vision, so-called “lazy eye,” and convergence insufficiency.

Dark Circle

Two common misconceptions about dark circles under your eyes: First, dark circles develop naturally as a result of advancing age. Not true. Children, too, can develop “symmetrical round pigmented areas beneath the eyes”—the official medical description for “the dark circle menace.

” Second and consistent with the old-age myth, dark circles under your eyes automatically signal exhaustion, excessive indulgence of your bad habits, or signs of serious illness. Officially, not impossible, but highly unlikely!

Dark circle facts: Yes, “lifestyle factors” contribute to the dark circle menace: smoking, drinking alcohol, and tossing-back too many caffeinated sodas play their part in formation of dark circles; but so does heredity. The dark circle menace can pass from generation to generation through the genes. More likely, allergies and nasal congestion cause your dark circles to appear.

Eyebrows

For Fall, 2009, and for the foreseeable future, embrace everybody’s new favorite fashion motto: “Every girl must get lashed!” Big eyelashes are the “It” look—so much a fashion essential you may request prescription medication for lengthening and thickening your anemic little lashes.

The fashionistas have neglected to tell you, however, without thick and healthy eyebrows to complement those luscious lashes; you will look more than a little out of proportion.

Especially because you won’t glam-up your lashes every day but you do wear your eyebrows wherever you go, you must pay at least as much attention to your brows as you lavish on your fluttery and flirty lashes.

Simply assume that great lashes without proper brows represent the moral equivalent of a teacup without a saucer—major faux pas. What would your mother say?

Carefully Aim for the Goal

Before you begin plucking, tweezing, trimming, waxing, and submitting to lasers, you should understand the objective. Most women—and most men, too—don’t know. More or less according to Nature, and especially according to aestheticians, your eyebrow should start directly above the inner corner of your eye, curving to its peak just beyond the iris’s outer corner. Then, it should taper gently to the end.
