Behavioral Optometry is a unique approach to eye care that focuses on the way that the vision system functions as a whole. Unlike traditional optometry, which focuses mainly on prescribing glasses or contact lenses to correct visual acuity, Behavioral Optometry takes a holistic, integrated approach to treating the vision system. This approach recognizes that vision is not just about seeing clearly, but also about how the brain processes and interprets visual information. At our eye care center in Latham, NY, we offer a variety of services based on the principles of Behavioral Optometry. These services include vision therapy sessions, which are designed to help individuals with conditions such as amblyopia, strabismus, and convergence insufficiency. These conditions can cause problems with visual processing and eye teaming, leading to difficulties with reading, writing, and other activities that require the eyes to work together. In addition to vision therapy, our eye doctors also offer neuro optometry rehabilitation for individuals who have experienced brain injuries or other neurological conditions that affect the vision system. This type of rehabilitation can help to improve visual function and reduce symptoms such as double vision, difficulty with spatial awareness, and eye strain. Overall, Behavioral Optometry provides a comprehensive approach to treating the vision system, taking into account not just the eyes themselves, but also the way that the brain processes and interprets visual information.

I am a student at Skidmore college and have had several concussions over the last couple of years, which has made school and everyday life a struggle for me, especially as I have gotten older. I have always been a good student but starting my second year of college I was experiencing tremendous difficulties keeping up with my course work. It took me hours to read what other kids could do in minutes. I had trouble concentrating and suffered from debilitating headaches. I went to numerous doctors to find a solution, but they all said there was nothing wrong with my eyes or my MRI’s came back clean. I was told that maybe school was just getting to hard for me. I was demoralized until I met Dr. Fox and he understood exactly what I was feeling and knew he could help. Even before the treatment that was the biggest sigh of relief I had taken in years. I started working with Skye, who beyond being hilarious, helped me more than I could have imagined. We tracked my headaches until they were completely gone. What I enjoyed the most was that she explained everything we did and why I would benefit from it. I am ecstatic to say that I am on the Honor Roll and leaving to study abroad in Vienna and it wouldn’t have been possible without Skye and Dr. Fox!
