Before Vision Therapy:
My eyes got tired easily when I would read. I didn’t care for reading. It took longer to read. It was hard for me to know left and right sides.
After Vision Therapy:
My eyes don’t hurt when I read or am looking hard at things. I like to read now. I know my left and rights a lot easier now.
~Layla
Before Vision Therapy:
Layla didn’t enjoy reading and would often become extremely frustrated when she did read. She had been doing alright in school; however, off and on her test scores would indicate she needed extra help with reading. We knew these test scores weren’t reflecting her true potential, so we sought out extra help for her with summer tutoring etc. eventually reaching out to CVL.
After Vision Therapy:
Layla has shown great improvement in her eye strength and her test scores had improved significantly as well. Her teacher believed one of the main reasons for improvement was in fact related to the eye therapy. We are so very proud of Layla and these results are in direct connection to the hard work and dedication she has put forth during this program. It is bittersweet to be towards the end of the program since we feel we have developed a bond with the therapist we hadn’t expected when beginning the process. One of our main goals for Layla was for her to gain confidence reading. We see this improved confidence in reading has spilled over into may other areas of her life and are forever grateful for this. We have had many moments realizing the positive impacts of vision therapy, but one that sticks out most would be when she would beg us to let her read, “Just one more page….” Now that was a powerful/emotional moment. Thank you to all that have helped and played a role in Layla’s success story.
