Lindsey<\/b><\/p>\n

Hi, my name is Lindsey K., I’m fourteen years old, and I live in Kansas City. Before I began Vision Therapy, I got motion sickness when I tried to move around or read in the car. I also got airsick and could NOT go on roller coasters. On tests and quizzes at school, I would skip over little numbers or words, which would often bring my grades down.<\/p>\n

Dr. X diagnosed me with a lazy eye and recommended Vision Therapy.<\/p>\n

During Vision Therapy we did lots of exercises to help me get control over my lazy eye. Over the course of eight months, I won the battle with my eye. I can now read in the car without feeling sick, ride comfortably on airplanes, and I can catch those words on my tests.<\/p>\n

I was still skeptical when I went with my class to Disney World, but I ended up going on ALL of the roller coasters numerous times without feeling a thing. Vision Therapy has really helped me!<\/p>\n

Jon<\/b><\/p>\n

I decided to try this Vision Therapy program because the frequency and intensity of my headaches (migraines) reached a level where I could no longer work. Other problems included blurred vision, double vision, and severe motion sickness.<\/p>\n

The headaches are gone, as are the blurred vision and double vision. The motion sickness has been greatly improved.<\/p>\n

Another area of improvement is my back. When sitting in chairs my back would start hurting after 10-15 minutes. A day of sitting would cause several days of pain. After this Vision Therapy program I spent four full days in the same chairs with no problem.<\/p>\n

My eye strain was causing muscle and back strain. This has allowed me to return to work.<\/p>\n

I am eternally grateful to Dr. X for helping me get rid of my dizziness which I had endured for 17 months. I had seen at least twenty different specialists in many fields and received no help.<\/p>\n

After a friend attended a lecture on dizziness, she was given the number of a therapist. I called and spoke with this person who recommended Dr. X. At this point, I was a basket case.<\/p>\n

I called Dr. X, who examined me leisurely and solved my problem.<\/p>\n

I can’t thank him enough. Six weeks of Vision Therapy have passed and I’m fine. God bless you! Thank you, thank you!<\/p>\n
