When should my child have their first eye exam?

The AOA (American Optometric Association) recommends an exam starting at 6 months. Dr. Sorkin uses special equipment to check that your babies eyes are working together (eye teaming), tracking accurately, if they are nearsighted, farsighted or have astigmatism, and the health of the eye to ensure your babies proper visual development.

Gabi’s cognitive fatigue was the monster that impeded her from doing homework within a reasonable amount of time. Homework would take 4-5 hours most nights starting in seventh grade.
Now Gabi can read at a college level, is reading for pleasure, and can study without cognitive fatigue.
She has more free time and her quality of life has greatly improved.

“Over the past year we have seen Collin’s abilities in many areas strengthen and grow. He was finally able to pass his reading requirement to graduate high school and has begun to excel in areas that he used to struggle. He walks taller and participates in more things- including looking into colleges!”

“I can graduate now with my reading score. Im also confident enough to drive”

Congratulations Collin. We are very excited for all potential you have unlocked for yourself 👨‍🎓

You may have heard the myth that vision can’t be improved after the age of 8. When in fact anyone could be a potential candidate for vision therapy. Dr. Sorkin specializes in binocular (eye teaming) vision and is ready to work with anyone of any age! Congrats to our two graduates today who improved their eye teaming and proved just how wrong that myth truly is!

Congratulations to Sophia for graduating therapy last week. Not only can she use her eyes to team better together up close but she can now move her eyes accurately across the page.
She’s gone from the 15th percentile to 90th percentile in both tracking speed and accuracy.

We are back and open with water and power! We are seeing patients again for vision therapy and eye exams. Glad to be getting back to a little bit of normalcy.

We made it through with no damage to the building. We currently have no power or water so we will be closed Friday October 11th for vision therapy and eye exams. Our plan is now to hopefully be open on Monday October 14th. Please stay tuned as we will do our best to keep everyone updated as much as possible. Hope everyone stayed safe
