Vision Therapy Success Stories
"I want to give you my most sincere thanks for all your patient care and skill in helping my son. He had eye surgery to correct double vision and though it helped the appearance of his eyes, his vision did not improve. After 3 and months in vision therapy, his school work is great, he can read, write, and even enjoys drawing for the first time in his life! -Parent of F.G.
"I have noticed that since vision therapy, my son's reading is much more fluid. He is not losing his place or jumping to the wrong line when he reads. Before therapy, my son would leave out areas on tests not even seeing them. Now his work is complete and his eye no longer turns in and up." -Parents of C.G.
"My son's success in school has improved very much since beginning vision therapy. He does much better in sports physically and in understanding the rules of the games. He has overcome his fear of heights, elevators, escalators, steep staircases and ladders. He also doesn't need to wear glasses anymore. I have recommended this service to others and will continue to do so." -Parent of W.G.
"My son says that reading has become easier and more fun! His ability to follow the ball when playing soccer has improved. Every week he had fun doing the activities in vision therapy. He is proud of himself and we are both very happy and grateful for the service." -Parent of J.W.
"Since he started vision therapy, my son's whole life has changed for the better. He is more focused. His reading comprehension and confidence have improved. He can 'see' the world around him for the first time. Overall, this is the best thing that has happened to him and we couldn't be more pleased." -Parent of C.S.
"Prior to vision therapy, my son could not read. He would reverse numbers and letters when he wrote and was very unsure of himself. Now, my son is reading above his reading level! He is more aware of any errors and can correct them himself. He is more confident and reads on his own." -Parent of J.F.
"I had double vision that that came on all of a sudden. I had been to many doctors on Staten Island and Manhattan and after all testing came out negative, I was unable to get help until someone told me about vision therapy and Dr.Gelfond. Since vision therapy I have noticed an unbelievable improvement. When I look in the distance I don't see double anymore and I am no longer dependent on anyone." -L.T.
"Prior to starting vision therapy my daughter was struggling academically. She was unable to read, recognize letters, or remember things she had just learned. Her writing was illegible and she was miserable when doing homework. Since completing vision therapy, she actually enjoys reading! She is much more independent in the completion of her work. Her teacher cannot believe the progress she has made." -Parent of D.B.
"My child had trouble reading and tracking. She skipped letters or whole words in sentences. We have definitely noticed a huge improvement. The vision therapy staff is diligent and hard working but very enthusiastic and caring with all the children. Dr. Gelfond is truly helping the children who have reading disabilities get a chance at improving their reading habits." -Parent of I.C.
"Prior to starting vision therapy, my son could not read or write well, and had a hard time focusing on homework. After completing his therapy, he went up three levels in reading! His writing and test taking skills improved and he is much more willing to sit down and read. I would definitely recommend this service to others." -Parent of Z.G.
