Behavioural Optometry offers a number of therapy options to help people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) develop the visual skills necessary for improved social and academic function.

Simply training eye movements can enhance visual attention and eye contact.

Prescribing Yoked Prism glasses can help to centre attention and decrease extreme upward gazing. Vision therapy can help develop and integrate visual skills.

Syntonics can help decrease hypersensitivities.

Traumatic brain injury sufferers commonly have some visual complications.

Blurred and/or double vision are often present but considered as something that has to be learned to be lived with. These can be treated, and Optometric Vision Therapy can help to re-train many visual, spatial, and developmental skills.

Helping to re-integrate vision with movement and sound can greatly improve the quality of life of a person who has suffered a brain injury.

People with Fragile-X exhibit many behaviours in common with those with learning disabilities. Luckily they learn well by mimicking others, hence people with Fragile-X can benefit greatly from Vision Therapy which teaches skills including body and spatial awareness, eye-hand coordination, visual-motor and visual-auditory integration and visual sequencing skills.

People with Down Syndrome often have visual problems requiring spectacle correction and/or Vision Therapy. Regular vision assessments are recommended.
