In vision therapy, we use the acronym CATSPP to describe the following process:

Convergence

Both eyes pointing at the same target

Accommodation

Target clear on the retina in both eyes

Tracking

Smoothly moving our eyes together between targets

Stereo

Sensing differences between the eyes to generate 3-dimensional images

Peripheral

Sensing where our eyes need to move next

Perception

Turning symbols into words and words into stories on the page

So, what happens when there is a problem in any single section of the CATSPP?

  • The process is slowed down before it even reaches the visual cortex.
  • Wasted energy causes comprehension to diminish

What does vision therapy do to prevent that?

  • Fine-tuning the CATSPP so that vision does not limit the learning process.
  • Preventing the visual system from acting as a limiting factor in a child’s development.

Success Stories

When I started I had very little control of my eyes. Through 13 weeks, including at home exercises, I now have great control! I’m able to read without my eyes spazing and I’m able to hold focus on small items. I 100% recommend eye therapy! It is easy exercises that make a HUGE difference! I have so much gratitude for the Axis team!

It helped me read and do a bunch more stuff. I did have to put thing of for it, but it was worth it. Then my eyes felt better when I did that other stuff. And the employees are so nice. Every time I walked in, I got a hi and every time I left, I got a bye. And we do some really fun things. Plus, I got a free backpack.

We didn’t know what Mason didn’t know until we met Dr. Sam. She was very informative while explaining that many of the things he wasn’t doing (& should have been) were an eye issue- not just being stubborn. After just a few sessions we saw small, but valuable changes. Every week Mason’s quality of life was improving. Our previously needy child is confident in everyday tasks such as dressing himself, being able to feed himself a full meal & so much more. His academic goals of writing on a line have been met as has his ability to color in the lines, interacting with the world has changed for him as he is now able to catch or kick a ball, climb playground equipment & run with others without a fear of falling. VT has been life changing for Mason, his siblings & their interactions with him & helped us as parents understand him!
