• Eye tracking
• Visual-motor skills
• Depth perception
• Visual memory & comprehension

Our developmental optometrist will create a therapy plan tailored to your child’s needs. It's not too late, early intervention makes a lifetime of difference.

A patient recently shared how binocular vision issues after COVID made everything feel “off”—until the right diagnosis and care helped them improve immensely.

“After light therapy, vision therapy, and prism lenses, I am much better… I’ve grown to consider my vision therapist like family. Everyone truly cares about you.”

Does your child struggle with reading? It might not be ADHD or laziness—it could be a visual dysfunction.

Up to 80% of classroom learning comes through the eyes, and yet standard vision screenings miss critical visual skills like:

🔹 Eye teaming
🔹 Focus (accommodation)
🔹 Saccades (eye movements)
🔹 Convergence
🔹 Binocular vision

At Vision Development of WNY, our custom Vision Therapy programs help children strengthen these skills—leading to better reading, learning, and confidence.

📅 Schedule a functional vision evaluation with Dr. Dick O'Connor and Dr. Alyssa Fortuna today.

Does your child struggle with attention or concentration? 🤔
When a child shows signs of ADHD, the American Academy of Pediatrics emphasizes one crucial guideline for diagnosis—"rule out any other possible conditions that can cause similar symptoms."

👀 Did you know? 15 out of 18 symptoms of ADHD overlap with eye coordination and visual processing dysfunction. Issues with eye teaming, tracking, focusing, and visual processing can mimic attention difficulties, making it essential to identify the root cause.

By strengthening these visual skills, children can experience improved focus, better reading ability, and enhanced overall attention—without unnecessary interventions.

📅 Schedule a vision evaluation today to uncover the true cause of your child’s attention struggles! Call 716-398-4300 or visit www.visiontherapywny.com.
