Can vision therapy help athletes?

YES!!

👉 Visual skills play a huge role in hitting, catching, throwing, and reaction time.

If your athlete struggles with:
• Missing pitches they should hit
• Late reactions
• Trouble tracking the ball
• Inconsistent performance

…their vision may need some extra support.

Vision therapy helps strengthen the eye-brain connection so that athletes can play with more confidence and consistency.

What if your regular eye exam isn’t telling the whole story??

Regular eye exams check for vision clarity (20/20). They don’t test many of the skills needed for reading and learning.

If your child is struggling in school, it’s worth looking into. We’re here to help.

Give us a call at (770) 423-7500 to talk to a vision therapist to see if a comprehensive vision evaluation might be a good fit for your child.

There are some new faces around here…
So I thought I’d reintroduce myself.

👋 Hi, I’m Dr. Jones!

I was diagnosed with convergence insufficiency and saccadic dysfunction during my first year of Optometry School.

Translation?
My eyes weren’t working together, and reading felt like an uphill battle.

Vision therapy changed everything for me personally and became my calling.

I started Southern Vision Development Center in 2019 to help kids and adults who are struggling (often without even realizing vision is the cause).

Around here, vision therapy is effective, supportive, and even fun!

💡 If you’ve ever wondered why schoolwork, reading, or daily tasks feel harder than they should for your kids (or you)… you’re not alone.

You’re in the right place.

Vision therapy is about confidence, growth, and realizing what’s possible when the eyes and brain finally work together.

For some of our patients, that means reading without tears.

For others, it means returning to work after a concussion.

We’re here to support you.

Call our office to talk to a vision therapist to see if we’re a good fit for you (770) 423-7500.

She was told to “just do crossword puzzles” after a concussion…(true story from one of our patients 😵)

BUT…after the concussion…she couldn’t read anymore.

Her eyes had trouble focusing on the words.

The words were jumbled on the page, trying to read now gave her headaches and her eyes were exhausted from trying so hard to focus.

Thankfully, she found us. She went through OMST (Optometric Multisensory Training) and got her life back.

If you have had a concussion and have:
💡 Headaches
📚 Words moving on the page
🤢 Dizziness
😵Hard time focusing
😴 Tired all the time

These problems don’t always go away on their own —but they can get better with the right kind of treatment.

The right tools (like vision rehabilitation and multisensory training) can help effectively retrain your brain and eyes to work together in a safe way.

There is hope. 💛 We can help.

Our next round of Optometric MultiSensory Training (OMST)
starts soon. Call us at (770) 423-7500 to find out if OMST might be a good fit for you.

Here's something easy to miss:

kids don't know their eyes work differently.

They think everyone sees the way they do.

So if the words look blurry or wiggle around, they just figure that's normal, and never say a thing.

That's why a developmental vision evaluation matters.

It catches what they can't tell you.

Vision goes way beyond “20/20” eyesight.

If your child (or you) are experiencing any of these symptoms, it might be time to take a deeper look.

It’s easy to mistake “not wanting to read or do homework” as “they just don’t like school” or “they are just tired.”

But what could really be happening beneath the surface is…

An underlying vision issue that affects how the eyes work together to read, understand, and
complete homework or schoolwork.

The homework tears aren't always about attitude.

Sometimes the work just feels too hard…
because the eyes are working overtime to stay focused.

That wears a kid out fast, and it can spill out as a meltdown.

So the behavior might be a clue, not the problem.

It’s easy to pass off as behavioral…

The tiredness, battle for homework and schoolwork.

But, it’s not always behavioral.

Many times there is an underlying vision issue EVEN IF they passed their vision screening and don’t need glasses.

Needing glasses and having an underlying vision issue that affects learning, reading, schoolwork and more are NOT necessarily one and the same.

Comment HOMEWORK and we’ll send you our vision symptom checklist.

Research shows that kids who struggle in school often have
vision problems that were never found — even if they passed
a school screening.

A developmental vision evaluation that checks ALL the learning-related visual skills can make a huge difference.

If your child is smart but struggling, vision might be the missing link.
