Description

Specialties

The Ann Arbor Clinic for Vision Enhancement specializes in helping children achieve optimum visual function and eye coordination. Although vision screenings are important, they are not complete eye examinations. Our pediatric eye examination is more than just a measure of sight. We evaluate a child’s vision, that is, test for eye teaming, focusing, depth perception, visual tracking and other visual perceptual disorders. Vision includes the gathering of information by the eyes, the processing of the visual information by the brain, and the integration of that information with the body. Any breakdown in this complex system can contribute to decreased academic performance.

Our professional staff has advanced training and experience diagnosing and treating developmental vision problems which interfere with a child’s ability to learn. We specialize in the following: Comprehensive eye exams, vision therapy, infant exams and those with learning-​related vision problems.

History
