Neuro-optometric Vision Rehabilitation
What is Neuro-optometric Vision Rehabilitation
Neuro-optometric rehabilitation is an individualized treatment for patients with visual deficits secondary to physical disabilities, traumatic brain injuries, and other neurological insults. Neuro-optometric therapy is a process for the rehabilitation of visual, perceptual, and motor disorders.
Who Can Benefit From Neuro-optometric Vision Rehabilitation?
Patients of all ages who have experienced a neurological insult - acquired brain injury, cerebrovascular accident, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, etc. - that result in acquired strabismus, diplopia, binocular dysfunction, convergence and/or accommodation paresis/paralysis, oculomotor dysfunction, visual-spatial dysfunction, visual perceptual and cognitive deficits, and traumatic visual acuity loss. These visual dysfunctions can manifest themselves as psychological sequelae such as anxiety and panic disorders; spatial dysfunctions affecting balance and posture; and may interfere with performance causing the person to be identified as learning disabled or as having attention deficit disorder.
A neuro-optometric rehabilitation treatment plan improves specific acquired vision dysfunction determined by standardized diagnostic criteria. Treatment regimens encompass medically necessary therapeutic yoked prisms with and without occlusion and other appropriate medical rehabilitation strategies.
