Vision Therapy is a critical intervention for a variety of optic disorders and has proven itself to be an effective way to treat chronic, often painful conditions of the eye. Vision Therapy does not seek to replace what works, but rather, work in conjunction with and support what does. And more than that, Vision Therapy is a means to an improved quality of life through an understanding of neuroplasticity and the brain’s role in what we once thought was just an eye problem.
Vision Therapy can help anyone of any age. While being treated earlier is always better, adults can also benefit from Vision Therapy. Vision Therapy helps individuals who have experienced concussions and brain trauma, as well as those whose neuro-visual deficits impede their ability to read, write, and learn. And while the benefits of vision therapy may take longer to achieve in some populations, it can greatly improve not only the skills they once lacked but their overall sense of self.
Vision therapy is a modality whose time has come and demonstrates that seeing is truly believing. Schedule an appointment with our eye doctors who have extensive experience and training in improving the full spectrum of vision.

At Amplify with Dr Wernick I was seeking help for seemingly intractable, probably age-related dryness. I've seen other doctors about it, and that has been helpful, but what he explained to me about it and the careful way he answered all my questions gave me so much more of a clear understanding of what is going on (and is not) that I am more able to implement all his and others' recommendations than I was before. And he gave me additional resources for further follow-up. I am most grateful.
Wow! This is a great Eye Care medical facility. I was thoroughly examined by Dr. Pinkhasov for over 2 hours. She made sure to check my eyes for pretty much everything and patiently explained proper care for my eyes. They definitely know how to provide great care and treat their patients right. Now I know why they have such a great reputation and been around for so long.
Dr. Kavner is a gifted diagnostician and orthoptic therapist. He treated me several decades ago for a condition similar to dyslexia. I was having migraines five times per week. I worked with him for about a year and I experienced tremendous improvement (down to 3-4 per year) that has lasted.
Dr. Kavner recommended two types of eye therapy for my daughter. One of them using bio-feedback. In just three sessions she is seeing considerably better. She shouted this morning: Ooh my God! I could not see these letters with my glasses on, and now I can see them without my glasses. If you are willing and able to invest in improving your vision, this is a good place to go to!

I have always found Dr Kavner's work, expertise and wisdom of the highest caliber. As one of the fathers of OT, occupational othomology, his depth and breadth of knowledge about the eyes' health and wellbeing of the patient is exemplary. Cannot say enough good things about him.
