Just to warn you right from the beginning: This is not a happy, smiley article about how great vision therapy was for me. The end result was great, but therapy was tough, frustrating, and exhausting. And some days, it felt pointless. I was in tears after every appointment the first couple months. I didn't want to go, especially since I had to take Lyft or ask a friend to drive me. (I couldn't drive, because a bad concussion had left [...]

After 6 months of vision therapy, Joey was [...]

“The changes I have noticed since I started vision therapy are many.  First, I have much neater handwriting.  Now I can tell my left from my right.  My cursive is a lot better.  Now, thanks to spelling letter visualization, my memory and ability to take a mind picture have improved.  My eye-hand coordination is superb!  Vision therapy has very much helped me.”  Written by the 10 year old patient.

“At the age of 62, I suddenly found it impossible to track a softball as I was ready to catch.  After 2 months of sports vision therapy, I attended the CO Rockies Fantasy Camp.  As the second oldest person attending, I batted .333 and had no fielding errors.  Most importantly, I had the time of my life.  Thank you for making it possible!”

“We are extremely thankful for the referral to Hellerstein & Brenner Vision Center.  We are already seeing the results of her vision therapy at home, school, ballet, and piano.  Her vision therapy has allowed her to participate fully in gym class, which she hasn’t done since pre-school and she is now in 2nd grade. She told me that reading is easier now and she isn’t skipping words, and she is now devouring books.  We can’t keep enough books in [...]
