Testimonials

When our daughter got glasses at the age of three, we thought her vision problems would be solved. We were wrong. She struggled with reading 1st and 2nd grade, but teachers felt it would work itself out, and that she tried hard. In 3rd grade we realized that she would only read and concentrate for small periods of time. We thought She was being lazy and she would get frustrated, that it was hard to keep her place when reading Chapter books. We had tried eye therapy before with another doctor, but the program was not as intense as this one and it did not work. I did more research and found Dr McBryar. We saw rapid improvement in her ability to read and comprehend as well as a boost in confidence. One teacher at the school thought her reading test scores were wrong because of the drastic improvement. We are so pleased and hope that others with a child having problems, take a look at vision therapy.

Testimonials

Vision therapy is well worth the response, time and effort. Our Son had a hard time focusing and writing neatly. After vision therapy Seth could complete a task in half the time if previously took. His abilities to focus improved greatly and so did his handwriting.

Also, he was better at listening. As a parent, we wanted learning to be fun for our Son, and vision therapy made this possible.

Vision Therapy has given or son the tools he needs to be able to scan and read the written word more effectively and efficiently.

He love working with John and these working sessions give him the motivation to gladly work on his homework assignments.

It amazed us to see the difference in the tracking of his eyes and along a line of it's from the beginning to the end of the treatment.

Dr. McBryar , Kristen and John are all marvelous and we would recommend them to anyone I only wish that we would have found them sooner!

Prior to coming to the institute for vision development my son complained of daily headaches. Therapy has eliminated his headaches completely. I love knowing my son is able to learn pain-free for the rest of his life because of the work that has been done over just a few weeks in this office. He he absolutely loved coming that didn't even feel like going to a doctor or therapy. We are grateful for the relief he was able to find by coming here.

Thank you!

When we first came to the practice, my son did not have huge issues, but lots of small ones- trouble with reading, sports (hitting the baseball consistently), coordination, etc- that were not easily detectable,but when put together presented issues. The staff here were all very professional and loving towards him. While I was concerned in the reading, my son was concerned with the athletic side. Seeing improvement night off the bat gave him confidence that i have nor seen in him and made him want to not only Come to therapy, but also made him want to work hard. He has surpassed his grade level and above in reading and hit his first home run this year! Thank you!!!
