OPTO-MIZATION
NeuroVisual Optometry
Clear eyesight is just one aspect of good vision, which is why we diagnose and treat those visual problems that can make daily tasks challenging. Using vision therapy, we’re able to enhance the connection between the eyes and the brain, which improves visual function and your quality of life.
We promote healthier vision by training the brain to use the eyes more efficiently.

Top 3 Reasons Patients Choose Us
Vision Therapy for Kids and Adults
01. We Support Children with Learning and Reading Challenges
Does your child struggle academically? When the eyes don’t work well together, this leads to eye-tracking problems that can impact a child’s learning. It goes beyond having clear vision — reading, writing, and staying focused depend on strong visual skills.
Vision therapy allows us to address visual problems that hinder your little one’s ability to thrive in school, sports, and beyond.
02. We Help People Conquer Balance Issues, Dizziness, and Migraines
Over 50% of your brain’s surface is dedicated to processing visual information, which means how you perform visual tasks is a good indicator of the effectiveness of the eye-brain connection.
If you frequently experience balance issues, dizziness, vertigo, migraines, Meniere’s disease, and vestibular neuritis, then you may have problems with your eye-brain connection that can be improved with neuro-optometry.
03. We Aid Patients with Reclaiming Their Life After a Concussion or Stroke
Does your child struggle academically? When the eyes don’t work well together, this leads to eye-tracking problems that can impact a child’s learning. It goes beyond having clear vision — reading, writing, and staying focused depend on strong visual skills.

7 Point Check To Prescription Perfection: Accuracy to Start!
We started our Optical Lab because we understand the importance of getting your prescription right the first time.
Many optometrists overlook essential optical measurements, only prescribing 2 out of 7 or not considering certain points of vision. This can cause an improper fit, leading to headaches, migraines, dizziness, balance issues, reading difficulties, and attention problems.We take a comprehensive approach to your vision by considering all 7 optical measurements when crafting your glasses. We take into account various aspects, such as visual acuity and eye coordination, to ensure optimal results. Our specially designed Ergoptics™ glasses aim to enhance your reading and writing experience while minimizing headaches and eyestrain.
Neuro-Optometry is a specialized field that focuses on the connection between the visual system and the brain. It effectively treats vision problems caused by neurological conditions, such as traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), strokes, or neurological disorders.
Vision therapy results can vary depending on several factors, such as the severity of the individual’s specific visual condition and how committed they are to the therapy program. Some people may experience rapid improvement, while others may need time and consistency to see desired results.
Visual acuity refers to the clarity or sharpness of vision. It’s usually measured using an eye chart and represented by a fraction, such as 20/20. The top number indicates the distance you are standing from the chart, while the bottom number represents the distance from which a person with normal vision can read the same line. Having 20/20 visual acuity means you can see at 20 feet what a person with normal vision can see at 20 feet.
Yes, in addition to vision therapy and neuro-optometry services, we also provide comprehensive eye exams and general optometry services. Our experienced optometrists conduct comprehensive eye exams to assess overall eye health, detect eye conditions and diseases, and prescribe corrective lenses if necessary.
The cost of vision therapy and neuro-optometry can vary depending on various factors, including the duration of the therapy program and the complexity of the visual condition. You can contact our offices in Victoria & Nanaimo to learn more about costs and whether you can benefit from insurance coverage or flexible payment options.
The timeline for seeing results from vision therapy or neuro-optometric rehabilitation depends on a patient’s compliance and vision problems. Our eye care team will create a customized treatment plan and offer an estimated timeline based on your specific needs.
People of all ages can benefit from vision therapy and neuro-optometric rehabilitation. If you have difficulties caused by visual processing problems, binocular vision disorders, amblyopia (lazy eye), strabismus (eye misalignment), or brain injuries, contact us to find out if our services are suitable for your specific condition and goals.
