You take for granted that you know what good vision
is. You can see. You pass the eye test for your license; you get
your eyeglass prescription checked periodically. Everything seems
fine…
But good vision is more than the sum total of
those tests. Consider these:
- Do you know the difference between an eye exam and an eye screening?
- Do you know a child whose intelligence is obvious and whose
eyes have been tested, but is having persistent reading or learning
problems?
- Vast numbers of us are “confined” to computers for
the bulk of our work days. Are our eyes really ready for the stress
of extended “near” work?
- Professionals whose work requires moving around in a precise
manner – teachers, students, performers, scientists, fine
equipment operators – may need some help in “recalibrating”
the perception of the space around them.
- There are advanced therapies for eye problems, such as “turned”
eyes or lazy eye – the traditional eye patch may not be the
right move
Dr. Ernest Loewenstein has spent his professional
life around eyes and optics. As a professor and practicing developmental
and environmental specialist, he practices non-invasive vision therapy
and uses the best of new technologies.
