Succeed with Vision Therapy

Poor visual skills can obstruct one's ability to succeed in school, work and sports. Vision therapy develops and enhances the fundamental visual skills and abilities, which leads to increased visual comfort and enhanced information processing. When the eyes and brain learn to work together as a team, visual function improves, and struggles in the classroom or at work are alleviated.

Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation

Restoring Vision, Balance, and Quality of Life

Have you experienced dizziness, double-vision, and a poorer quality of life after a traumatic brain injury, stroke, or other neurological incident? Proper visual function can only occur when the eyes and brain work together as a team to focus, track, and perceive the world in motion around us. Our Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation team helps patients retrain the brain and eyes to effectively work together so you can live your best life.

My daughter has been receiving vision therapy here for the past seven months to treat intermittent exotropia, and we have been so grateful to work with Rhonda throughout this journey. Rhonda’s dedication goes far beyond the treatment itself—she puts genuine care into every small detail to ensure that my child feels comfortable, confident, and even excited to come to therapy. Her kindness and professionalism have made a world of difference for our family, and I trust her completely. Dr. Anderson is equally wonderful. At every appointment, he shows thoughtful consideration so that my child never feels self-conscious or thinks of her eyes as “abnormal.” That level of compassion truly means so much to us as parents. We wholeheartedly recommend this center to any family seeking not only excellent care, but also a warm and supportive environment.

I had been suffering from BVD unknowingly for many years which resulted in chronic nausea, injuries from falls and severe motion sickness. Dr Anderson was quick to diagnose the issue and get me started on vision therapy. My vision therapist Beth-Ann was exactly the right person to help me work through my challenges. After many months I'm driving again, have nearly zero nausea and haven't had a single fall. The therapy was truly life changing for me. Thank you, team!

My child is at week 30 of his treatment. We were skeptical at first but decided to try; having nothing to lose. Can't believe the change in his vision. He no longer has light sensitivity, or issues with eye strain. He is focusing better, and starting to read. 100% recommend. Doing the daily exercises is a must and requires commitment.

I Graduated from Grand Vision Tharapy today and it feels amazing. All the exercises they give you is worth it. I did 25 sessions and sometimes it felt like an over load, after a while you understood why. You could feel your vision changing every other day when you do the activities. Like for an example, I had problems with converging and reading in a straight line. I couldn't do it.🤷 With the help from Andrea and the team and alot of tharapy hours i got through it. (Some eye straining) but ohh well u get use to it.😁 I want to Thank Andrea Brau my tharapy teacher (she's the best)😊 Dr. Anna and the rest of the crew for all the help and encouragement. If u needed help with some things they were there to help you with one email away. I recommend GRAND VISION anytime, 5 Star all the way.

We want to thank Dr. Matt, Andrea, Glenna and all the staff at Grand Vision for all they did to help our son's vision. He recently completed the program and we are so thankful for the amazing results!! When he began vision therapy, our son was in Grade 3 and had headaches and double vision, especially when reading. He noticed improvement almost immediately which helped him stay motivated to do home exercises. Today he no longer has the former reading challenges and is an avid reader. We are grateful to Grand Developmental Vision Institute for making this possible and making such a difference in his and our lives. We also appreciate the clinic accommodating our schedule throughout therapy. Our biweekly appointments extended the course time to nearly two years but allowed us to much more conveniently fit the appointments into our lives, especially considering the drive out from Brandon and my daughter's birth soon after we began vision therapy.
