“Vision therapy has helped my vision. I can see better out of my bad eye. I can see while playing sports.”

ANDREW’S PARENT:

“This was AJ’s second around of Vision Therapy for his lazy eye. His first round of Vision Therapy improved AJ’s vision tremendously. During this round of Vision Therapy, I have noticed his reading skills improved even more. He is doing better in school than he did before attending Vision Therapy. He has also finally accepted that wearing his glasses helps him sleep. I have no doubt that if it wasn’t for Vision Therapy that it would still be a constant fight to wear his glasses.

I think this Vision Therapy program is incredible. All the instructors are awesome, and AJ has never complained about having to come. His favorite part of Vision Therapy is the virtual reality games. I would recommend this program to anyone who needs it. Dr. Ryan is great with kids and made this entire process really easy.”

“Vision therapy has been fun and it helps me with sports. I feel like I can see way better and read better. I’m thankful for vision therapy. Thank you for helping me!”

BRODEN’S PARENT:

“Vision therapy has boosted Broden’s confidence, especially when playing sports. Since completing his therapy, his focus has improved significantly, his vision is clearer, and his depth perception is much better. This has directly translated to a huge boost in his confidence on the baseball field and basketball court. We appreciate everything Lumen Vision has done to improve Broden’s eyesight and overall quality of life!”

“My eyes feel better and they are not as tired.”

NOAH’S PARENT:

“Our son has had such a positive experience at Lumen Vision. Dr. Ryan and all the staff are so friendly, and the vision therapy sessions were fun and engaging. Most importantly though, we’ve seen a big improvement in our son’s vision. He’s no longer getting headaches, his eye turn is almost completely gone, and he’s less frustrated and irritable at the end of the day. We’re so grateful to the team at Lumen for setting our son up for success!”

"How is Vision Therapy changing my life?

It helped me with my reading and writing., The games were fun.”

KAELYN’S PARENT:

“All staff at Lumen Vision have treated us with care and compassion. This was all new to us and they took the time to answer any questions and explained things well. We look forward to seeing progress made on our final exam visit. We are hopeful!!”

“My name is Silas, and I am 7 years old. The things I loved about vision therapy are: The computer games I got to play, the funny doctor and always getting a prize when I would come to my appointment. Vision therapy is changing my life by helping me be able to read better. Thank you to all the nice therapists and the doctor.”

SILAS’ PARENT:

“Hello, I am the mom of Silas. Silas is 7 years old. From the minute we walked into Lumen Vision we felt welcomed. The receptionists were so friendly and helpful. While meeting with Dr. Ryan my son was laughing and asking all sorts of questions. When we were all done with our initial assessment my son asked when we could go back. Vision therapy has changed our life in so many positive aspects. My son can read better, follow with his eyes while reading and has just improved his overall strength in his eyes. As apparent, I could not be happier with Lumen vision and vision therapy. Sincerely, a happy parent.”

“Vision Therapy has helped me graduate occupational therapy. It is fun and I like the paperwork. It helped me read better and I loved the games. Vision Therapy has helped me with ninja and rock climbing because I can see better now.”

RYKER’S PARENT:

“Over the last ten weeks, we have seen huge impacts on both of our children due to their time at Lumen Vision. One of the most noticeable changes is in their academics. Handwriting and reading have both seen improved performance, which in turn has boosted their confidence. During our time at Lumen Vision, we have had a child graduate form Occupational Therapy, and another from low reading fluency, to on track with their peers. Finally, vision therapy didn’t only improve their academics, but also their hand-eye coordination, and we have seen better performance in athletics, physical education, and even virtual games where they can better track fast moving objects. Overall, we would highly recommend Lumen Vision to everyone, and getting screened is easy yet can change one’ life.”

“I learned how important vision is for everyday life. It is important to wear my glasses and do my vision homework.”

TUCKER’S PARENT:

“Tucker has shown us that he has a strong work ethic and understands the importance of having good eyesight. He has worked hard to improve his vision the past 10 weeks. The staff at Lumen have been encouraging and great to work with.

We hop that his hard work has resulted in measurable improvements in his sight, especially his depth perception.

We are proud of Tucker!”

"Not that my eye contact has really changed, but I have gotten better at looking different directions with my eyes. It’s making my eyes better at tracking. I learned how to use the virtual reality headset. I learned how to make my eyes see something from electronic. I learned how to make hard decisions.”

OCTAVIA’S PARENT:

“How is Vision Therapy changing my life?

We have noticed since Octavia began Vision Therapy that she has become more careful with reading and has improved accuracy.

We were also impressed with her ability to find hidden shapes when doing the online portion of the at home exercises. There were multiple instances where Octavia could see things that us parents couldn’t fine. I think vision therapy has trained Octavia’s eyes in a sense. She is more carful and precise with her reading and writing, although her handwriting is still improving! I think Vision Therapy has given Octavia the confidence to use her eyes to their full potential. In school, her reading scores do not match her comprehension scores, leading me to believe that she understands the material in general but tends to skip or miss words when reading aloud. Vision Therapy seems to be training her to slow down a bit and consider everything on the page. I’m hopeful Vision Therapy will be a foundation for her future vision and academic success., Thank you all for the wonderful opportunity.”

“I agree with my mom my eyes are working good.”

JAXON’S PARENT:

“I hope it has helped Jaxon in some way that will help him stay focused more in school.”

“Vision therapy has made me happier. I like doing the virtual reality and the girls that work with me make it fun. I have noticed that I enjoy reading more and am much better at it.”

COOPER’S PARENT:

“Vision therapy has been a great experience for Cooper and me. He looks forward to his appointments every week, especially the virtual reality part. I have notice when we go places and I point out a plane or an animal he can see it now and much quick or when he does. I have also notice he has started to enjoy reading. Vision therapy has been great, and the staff at Lumen vision have also been fantastic. He has so much fun with them and they are also very helpful and friendly.”

“Math and piano have gotten easier. I got better at reading my numbers and letters.”

KAILEECE’S PARENT:

“After completing 10 weeks of Vision Therapy at Lumen Vision we have seen our daughter improve in her ability to read, play piano and work on math. Before completing the 10 weeks she would get really frustrated while trying to use her eyes to find the information she needed, because she would see the word, number or note twice. This past week she was happy to read to her 20year-old brother and has more confidence with math and piano. It has been neat to see her want to play piano for her friends.”

“The games were fun. The people were funny and nice.”

EMERSYN’S PARENT:

“We learned a lot of things regarding Emersyn’s vision in her initial consult that made a lot of sense in things we were seeing at home. We were eager to start. It ended up being very intensive for Emmy and we sure did our best! We had a lot harder times getting her to do the worksheets, so I am eager to see how her post testing goes. I am hoping she was able to do enough to show some progress, time will tell. The staff and Dr. Ryan were great to work with.”

"Vision Therapy has made my eyes feel better. It has helped me read better and see better.”

CAMDEN'S PARENT:

"Vision therapy has been a transformative experience for my child. Initially, my child struggled with various challenges that affected his academic performance and certain aspects of daily life. As we are near the end of our vision therapy journey, positive changes have been noted by many. This therapy, which involves a personalized program of computer-based eye exercises and activities aimed at improving visual skills and building a stronger connection between what his eyes see and the message the brain receives, has significantly boosted my child’s ability to focus, read, and engage in classroom activities with more confidence and ease.

Before starting vision therapy, my child would often have trouble staying focused during tasks that involved reading and writing. We noticed a lot of tiredness, difficulty concentrating and avoidance during tasks that required visual attention. The frustration was evident, and it began to impact his self-esteem. However, since beginning therapy, we have noticed a vast improvement in his ability to track and focus, which has allowed him to perform better in school, particularly in the subjects of math and reading.

Vision therapy has helped my child develop confidence in himself and his ability to succeed in school. He no longer avoids doing certain tasks and is less reluctant to do the harder work at school. We are grateful for the tools that Vision Therapy has given our child and we are exited for our child to continue to strengthen his newly sharpened skills and continue to see positive improvements in his school work as well as daily life tasks.”

“I started vison therapy a few weeks ago, and it’s helping me in so many ways! Every week, I go to an appointment where I do special exercises with my therapist. Then I have homework to do at home. Some of my homework is on a website called “Our Visual Brain”, where I play fun games that help me eyes and brain work better together. The games are cool because they’re kind of like puzzles, and I feel like I get better at them each time I play.

Besides the games, I also have other activities to do. Some of these are things like looking at near-far charts, which means I look form something close to something far away to help me eyes focus better. I also do word searches, practice wit coordinates, and read. These exercises are helping me get faster at reading, and I don’t lose my place as much anymore. Vision therapy is making school and other things easier for me, and I feel proud of what I can do now!”

SADIE’S PARENT:

“How Vision Therapy is Changing My Life

When my daughter, Sadie (age 9), began vision therapy, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. I had heard stories about how it could help with things like focus, reading speed, and even coordination, but I wasn’t sure if it would work for her or how quickly we’d see results. Now that we’re finishing up her 10-week program, I am amazed at the progress she’s making and the positive impact it’s having on her life.

Sadie has weekly in-house appointments, where her therapist guides her through exercises to strengthen her visual skills. Beyond these appointments, she has homework assignments that she completes throughout the week. These assignments are varied and keep her engaged in different ways. Some activities are online and game-based, run through a platform called “Our Visual Brain”. These games are interactive, making it fun for her to focus on task like tracking objects, identifying patterns, and improving her reaction time. The online platform has been wonderful because it turns exercises into challenges that she looks forward to.

The offline activities are just as beneficial. Each week, Sadie practices with a variety of near-far charts, coordinates, word searches, reading, and more. At first, these tasks were challenging for her, especially when switching between close-up and far-away tasks on the near-far chart. But with regular practice, she’s become faster and more confident.

The changes aren’t just academic. I see my daughter’s confidence growing with each new skill she masters. Vision therapy has taught her persistence, and she’s learning the importance of working toward a goal, even when it takes time and effort. These skills benefit her in daily life.

Through this experience, I’ve come to realize how important vision therapy can be for children who struggle with task that many of us take for granted. Vision therapy doesn’t just help children see better, it helps them process what they see more efficiently, which can positively impact their learning and confidence. I’m grateful for the tools it’s given Sadie to succeed.”

“Vision therapy helped my eyes be better and stronger. Because my eyes are less tired. I have better focus. I can see a bit better. I can see a bit more straight. I also like playing the games.”

JORDYN’S PARENT:

“First, we have seen a dramatic decrease in the lazy eye and eye turning that was happening prior to therapy. We have notice that her focus on things such as reading, drawing have increased. We have not heard any complaints form Jordyn during therapy and she enjoyed working with everyone at Lumen.”

“I am so happy that I have improved my eyes. Now I don’t get headaches. Eye therapy is actually fun!”

KANYON’S PARENT:

“As our 10 weeks of vision therapy comes to an end, I am extremely gratefully our local eye doctor sent us to see Dr Ryan and the Team at Lumen Vision. It has been rewarding seeing Kanyon’s headaches improving and hearing such positive feedback from your team. I am excited about our next visit with Dr Ryan to see just how impactful vision therapy has been for Kanyon.

From our very first visit, the entire staff have been incredible. Dr Ryan, the vision therapy team, administrative ladies and financial coordinator all top notch. Then plan, the goal, the financial aspect was all crystal clear from our first visits.

Extreme gratitude for the team at Lumen Vision.”

“What I like about Lumen Vision: It helped me with my eyes. It was very fun playing games on the computer and board games. Lumen Vision has made my life better because it has helped me with basketball. My eyes have been really productive with working together. I think being there was very fun and the people there were kind and nice.”

WESLEY’S PARENT :

“Lumen Vision has been a great experience for us. The therapy itself shows in the results but the positive experience is due to the people who work within the building. All the employees are always so kind, take the time to explain the semantics of the program, financials, the homework and how the sessions went. They all truly look like they enjoy being at work, which is so refreshing and makes for such a positive environment.

My son being in middle school can be a tough nut to crack but there were always jokes, lots of positivity and while he maybe didn’t always show it, he always enjoyed coming to therapy . The energy was always on point.

The incentive of the scholarship program, that was huge for him and really helped with the commitment to the homework sessions. The ability to relate to him at what level he was age wise, and his interests really stands out to me. The first day he wore a basketball jersey - ok most days he wore a basketball jersey, or a golf hat. The first interaction Dr. Ryan noticed his hat, commented on it, and immediately my son was in. Dr. Ryan showed interest in him and what he had a love for, that makes a big difference for a kid. Sports is his passion so when he was told that pro athletes use similar training to increase their speed and hand eye coordination – again he was in.

There are just a lot of little things that each individual within the company did that made our experience great. We are thankful for the opportunity we had to with everyone at Lumen.”

"I have gotten better at being social and I have gotten less tired at school over the weeks and months. Lumen Vision has helped me overcome stress in school and getting to be me again. I am proud to say that my eyes can see more clearly and brighter. I loved the workers there. They were with me on every step of the way and guided me to become someone in the future that can achieve my goals.

I’ve not only made friends at Lumen but Guardians to help and lead me more to God. The lessons are FUN!!! That I’m excited to see how Lumen does such a good job with kids and even adults.

Thanks, LUMEN VISION, for always being by my side to every step of the way.”

JADE’S PARENT:

“Vision Therapy has really been helpful for Jade! We initially started therapy because Jade had a lazy eye periodically. Her vision was 20/20 in that eye, but it would wander sometimes, especially when she was tired. After two cycles of therapy, I excited to say her lazy eye is 80-90% improved! Her eyes still wander occasionally, but it is FAR less than before. Before vision therapy, we notice it daily. Now, it is rare to see.

Jade enjoyed going to the weekly appointments. Everyone there was very engaging with her. To have a teenager WANT to go to appointments and (most of the time 😊) be positive about doing her daily homework must mean Lumen is doing it right! 😊

We had been told by multiple other optometrists that there was really nothing to be done about Jade’s lazy eye. They said that her Ivison was good, but just that one eye was doing most all the work and that’s the way it was. We had been told patching wouldn’t help but maybe get her glasses someday. Other healthcare professional suggested that one eye doing most of her daily work could contribute to the fatigue she felt daily. After vision therapy with her eye vastly improved, we have seen that contribute to making a noticeable difference in her daily energy levels!

We are VERY grateful for Lumen Vision and the Vision Therapy program!”

CHARLIE’S PARENT:

“My 7-year-old daughter, Charlie, looked forward to her vision therapy session every week, which says a lot! The therapy made a noticeable difference, especially with her letter recognition. I appreciated how her homework was enjoyable for her and how it coincided with what she is currently learning in school. We’re so grateful for the support and progress she made. Lumen Vision has an amazing staff-kind, professional, and great with kids. Highly recommend Lumen Vision to any parent considering vision therapy for their child!”

“I really had fun with the interactive parts of vision therapy! I really enjoyed the virtual reality part, I was excited to come to therapy!”

SAMUEL’S PARENT:

“We really appreciated all the staff at Lumen Vision. Everyone was easy to work with and helpful with the treatment plan. The office building is inviting and bright for the kids to play with while they wait. It is also nice to be able to purchase your glasses at the office and not have to shop elsewhere. We got our kiddo to start wearing his glasses all the time which was such a right before therapy! It was a good experience overall!”
