Whether your patients’ goals are to return to work, play with their grandkids, or travel the world, your hard work helps them progress toward their functional goals.
But when vision problems distort your patient’s world, it can feel like you’re working twice as much for half the progress. Falls, mobility deficits, isolation, and dependence on others can lead to serious, costly setbacks. And problems performing exercises and activities often result in avoidance over time, severely limiting functional outcomes.
It doesn’t have to be this hard.
In this hands-on recording you will learn the latest vision therapy techniques, and discover a powerful intervention framework that has helped countless therapists and their patients overcome these exact same issues for years. Whether your patients are adults with head injuries or stroke survivors with visual perception problems, you’ll transform your practice with innovative interventions that help patients adapt to visual impairments, take charge of their recovery, and resume functional activities they might have otherwise abandoned.
Discover new ways to accelerate progress for outcomes that will earn you referrals.
- Identify the latest advances in vision therapy.
- Develop a comprehensive assessment framework, identifying the root causes of vision impairments and related functional deficits.
- Discuss how vision integrates with cognition for higher level tasks.
- Demonstrate the most effective interventions available for managing vision impairments, restoring function, and improving safety.
- Determine which treatment techniques will benefit your patient.
- Explain how to progress the difficulty and integrate functional tasks.
- Outline interdisciplinary strategies that combine multiple interventions for better outcomes.
- Evaluate real-world applications for common diagnoses and conditions.
- Apply the assessments and interventions discussed in this seminar to a series of interactive case scenarios.
- Create appropriate functional goals and progress measures.
- Compare cost-effective tools for vision therapy.
- Review the keys to developing a successful vision therapy program.
