Vision therapy was the best thing we could have done for our son. He can see out of his eye now and see things in all directions.

| We are so pleased with Connor's progress! The improvements he has made with his eye turn are remarkable. His eye no longer turns inward, he can see with both eyes, and have nice stereo depth perception. It' wonderful when we can work through these challenges when children are young so vision problems don't hold them back in school, sports, and activities. We thank the parents for prioritizing vision exercises and making positive changes for their children. |

I have been a patient at this practice for right around 20 years. They were recommended to me by a coworker, and at the time were located down town. I had been experiencing many random eye issues, and had previously only gone to optical places at the mall. The doctor found some issues, and treated them. They were so observant, and on top of things way back then, and continue to have the best technology, staff, and practices to really look at your vision and how it effects your entire person/health. It amazes me, the advances and knowledge that this team of doctors has. They work with you and your child to make sure that your eye sight and eye comfortably is 100%. I can't say enough about the wonderful staff in every section. The welcoming front desk, the ladies that do the eye tests, the doctors, and the staff that helps you with contacts, and the glass staff as well. Not only that, but they give you a 2 year warranty on glasses, which is amazing, as most places give only 1 year warranty. (insurance only covers glasses every 2 years). They truly want you to have the best care possible, I have felt that care for 20 years, as well as have brought my own child here since she was 1. If you want the best care for your eyes, this is the place. The vision therapy and what they offer to help children is wonderful! This is a practice for you for any age of your family. Cradle to grave, they have my business!

Before coming to Cedar Rapids Eye Care, we didn't know that vision therapy was even a type of treatment. We though our son's reading challenges were due to age and lack of interest in reading. We had absolutely no idea that he had so many visual challenges with reading and comprehending.
From day one, Maria had our son's best interest top of mind. The homework kept the momentum of the therapy sessions going in a positive direction. Maria was patient and dedicated to Dylan's success.
While no parent ever wants to see their child in therapy, we are grateful for Maria for helping improve our son's vision and processing!

| Thanks so much! We know Maria thoroughly enjoyed working with your family. It was great to see Dylan's growth every week. Your family was wonderful to partner with, too. We appreciated your commitment to consistent practice and Dylan's positive attitude. Under the guidance of an experienced vision therapist like Maria, we knew he would be successful! |

Cayden had a great experience with vision therapy! Maria was outstanding and he enjoyed every session. When Cayden first started, he could cry reading very simple books--easy reader books. He would get frustrated and shut down. After about 6 weeks of sessions he was reading chapter books without us asking him to. He truly enjoyed reading for the first time.
Cayden also started Archery for the first time at the beginning of his fifth grade year. He started out shooting in the mid-one hundreds and he started to steadily get better. He ended up his Archery year shooting 252 out of 300 at State and he qualified for Nationals. His vision was getting better and better with each session and tournament, advancing him further and further.
We are grateful for vision therapy and Maria for all it has done for Cayden!

We were skeptical about the vision therapy process, but in the end the time and financial commitments were well worth it for the success and progress that Jackson made. Reading was always a forced activity, one that could end in tears. After vision therapy, Jackson not only chooses to read, but he enjoys it as well. School has become much less stressful for him and academic success is happening an lot easier for him now. Jackson has always been a hard worker, but it is wonderful to see him be more successful and enjoying things more. He is not only reading more, but also playing more games and participating in sports activities. We took our home vision therapy time very seriously and were dedicated to making progress. That, combined with Maria's sessions and support for Jackson, has truly made a difference for him. We cannot express enough gratitude and appreciation for the positive difference vision therapy has made in Jackson's life.

| Thanks so much, Stolba family! Your family's dedication really paid off--Jackson graduated 6 weeks ahead of schedule and he met all of his goals. That is awesome teamwork! It was a joy to learn that Jackson is leading his class to earn reading points to earn a class party. No more tears--he can see clearly and has gained ability and confidence. Nice work! |

My advice to people who are considering vision therapy: Do it! the results are well worth any time and effort required on your behalf. My reading score on the ACT increased from a 27 to a 31 after vision therapy.

| Congratulations, Sophie! Combining the right glasses prescription with 6 weeks of vision therapy to improve the saccaddic functioning of your oculomotor muscles did the trick! We wish you all the best in college. Keep optometry school on your radar! |

My advice for patients who are considering vision therapy for amblyopia (lazy eye), binocular vision dysfunction, and sports training for baseball: It's very helpful and you will, without a doubt, see improvements in sports and everyday life IF you dedicate yourself to it.
