""I notice that my right eye doesn't shut off as much anymore!"

"I started off with headaches every day on the computer. I don't have headaches anymore. I don't have blurred vision or I don't get as tired."

"Everyday driving is so much better, I can drive on my own now."

“I work on a computer 40 hrs/weekly and experience crippling migraines. Working with Dr. Cao’s team has given me the 1) knowledge about how my eyes play a critical role in pain management of migraines and 2) the skills to strengthen them individually and as a team. My eyes are more resilient to screen time and my pain management is great!”

​​​​​​​“Vision therapy has restored my confidence and trust in what I’m looking at, my appearance, and learning to set my eyes at a comfortable distance. Previously, I dreaded doing close work or driving because I felt dizzy or like letters were crowding and jumping around. But now I can even see better with and without my glasses. Tracking my progress to no lenses with the help of Dr. Cao and Erica was very helpful and easy because the exercises changed every week and were fun to do. I felt very heard and supported throughout. Thank you so much to everyone at Vizen <3”

“I was referred to Dr. Cao after I experienced a brain injury while under anesthesia. I was dizzy, nauseous, and leaning to the right.I had suppression (selective blindness) and could not track with my right eye. In addition, I could not remember anything I read. After one year of vision therapy and glasses to correct my lean to the right, I am able to read again and remember what I have read. And I no longer have a right eye that suppresses objects or letters. Dr. Cao and her team were the essential component in my healing. They all worked together to schedule appointments and design exercises that challenged my eyes and brain. If you are willing to trust the process and put in work, I truly believe that Dr. Cao and her team can help you too.”

“Vision therapy helped me because I used to get headaches all the time. Vision therapy was fun and easy and helped me with my vision.”

“This has been absolutely trans-formative! I’m so much more comfortable in all aspects of life, and have been able to return to doing things I love like reading and bird watching. I’m thriving at work because I no longer have issues with overhead lights or screens, and I’m barely getting headaches anymore.

​​​​​​​And everyone who works here has been so kind and supportive. I can’t say enough nice things!”

“I was having balance and coordination issues, as well as headaches. Vision therapy helped me in all areas and I am pleasantly surprised at the results. It also helped me with retaining information as I was studying for school, so that learning was much more effective after therapy. I highly recommend vision therapy for everyone.”
