Patients Receive Pediatric Eye Care At Austin Vision Therapy Center

Austin Vision Therapy Center, an optometrist based out of Austin, Texas, is pleased to announce that they provide eye care services for young children and toddlers. The clinic is dedicated to the fields of developmental optometry, behavioral optometry, and neuro-optometry. They also specialize in vision therapy.

Dr. Denise Smith, Founder and Clinical Director of Austin Vision Therapy Center, says, “I am an optometrist by trade and an optimist at heart, and I believe that there is always a solution no matter how difficult or complex things are. At Austin Vision Therapy Center, my main duty is to diagnose and treat visual disorders that negatively affect people’s lives. I know how important vision is to a person’s life, and I am dedicated to ensuring that every single one of our patients has a chance at a completely normal life. I give people options that they didn’t have before—that they didn’t even know existed. With our specialized pediatric eye care programs, we offer a way for visually-impaired children to prepare for a better life.”

“Every parent wants the best for their child,” observes Dr. Smith. “For children who have trouble with their vision, you can’t find a better treatment program anywhere else. We can help pave the way to a better future for your children and help them do better academically, professionally, athletically, and neurologically.”

According to the specialist, Austin Vision Therapy Center’s best kept secret is their vision therapy program, which allows the clinic to treat vision problems that go beyond the scope of traditional eye care and glasses. As Dr. Smith explains, what vision therapy does is slowly condition the patients’ eyes to work more efficiently and allow their brain to process the stimuli in a more effective manner. The clinic’s vision therapy programs are all conducted by a team of skilled healthcare professionals using the most up to date treatment methodologies.

Austin Vision Therapy Center has earned themselves high praise due to their dedication to providing unmatched eye care. On Google, the optometrist enjoys an almost perfect rating 4.9/5 stars from over 70 patients. In a recent review, Mary Erickson says that they are, “Absolutely a believer in vision therapy! Both my children have made significant progress with peripheral vision, tracking and near/far focusing. My son had lots of trouble skipping over words when reading and now reads smoothly, no longer rubs his eyes or avoids reading! Both children have improved their performance in their sports as well. All of these improvements have been observed with only two months of therapy! We are excited to see continued progress!”

Meanwhile, in another review, Allecia Seaman says, “We had no idea of the vision issues our son was dealing with. We have been going weekly for seven months. It has been amazing! Watching his success in the classroom and on the field/court has been wonderful. It is a financial commitment but has been worth every cent! Thank you to all the staff for working with our son.”

The clinic also maintains excellent reviews on other platforms, with another perfect rating on Facebook and a 4.5 rating on Yelp. In a Yelp review, Steph C. says, “I've had an eye turn/lazy eye all my life and was always told that if you don't catch it before you're eight, there's nothing that can be done. Well, vision therapy has taught me that's not true! I have learned to control my eye muscles better and am starting to actually use that eye. I still have work to do, but I'm more confident than I've been in a while. If you're an adult who thinks it's too late, it's not! Go see Dr. Smith.”
