vision therapy

[Guest guest]

I know in our area there is an office purported to do the vision

therapy--very, very expensive and no ins covers it.

However, children who have a sensory processing disorder, as savannah

does, often also have some eye teaming problem--the eyes do not work

well together. Its plain to be seen--just asking her to follow a pen

with her eyes, they cannot cross when it comes close to her nose. then

they dont come apart properly--converging and diverging. Our ins

covers her eye teaming work thru an occupational therapist, along with

the rest of her sensory processing problems. There wouldnt be anything

in it for the OT to say she has something she hasnt got--since she is

already going for SPD work. and I have done the same thing at home

with her, and can plainly see her eyes arent working together.

So I think some people, like the one in our area, are a BIG RIP=--but

there are also legitimate people who work on it.
