Have you ever wondered what it feels like to suffer a vision problem?

Many people suffer hidden vision problems, because they think that good vision is the same as clear sight or "20/20 vision". Symptoms of vision problems are commonly overlooked, or attributed to some other cause, and may include:

  • Headaches or sore eyes
  • Slow reading
  • Blurred vision
  • Rereading a lot or forgetting what you've read
  • Poor comprehension
  • Tired, itchy or watery eyes
  • Concentration problems
  • Tiredness after computer work or reading
  • Poor depth judgment
  • Difficulties with 3D vision

Why is vision so important?

Did you know, over 80% of the information your brain processes is visual? So it's easy to see why good vision must be much more than clear sight or "20/20". For example, if you are a student, or work in an office, you probably use your vision for many hours of close work. This places great demand on visual skills, such that 90% of computer users experience visual complaints!

A behavioural optometrist is trained to asses many important areas of your vision, including:

  • Focusing (far to close)
  • Eye alignment & eye teaming
  • Eye movements
  • Peripheral vision
  • Prescription (longsight, short sight, astigmatism etc)
  • Eye health
  • Visual processing

Life long vision problems - you are never "too old" to do something about it

Many adults do not realise that their struggles are in no way linked to their intelligence or how hard they are trying. Often problems begin in school and continue to affect opportunities at work. These struggles are caused by common vision problems known as "Functional Vision Disorders". At Harmony Vision Care, our behavioural optometrists have years of experience diagnosing and treating adults with reading, concentration or comprehension problems.

Adults with lazy eyes or eye-turns have often been told that "nothing can be done" after a certain age. While it is certainly true that earlier treatment is more successful and easier to do, age should not be considered a barrier to attempting treatment. The latest brain research proves this!

Other Unusual Visual Disturbances

Do you suffer from symptoms such as glare sensitivity, discomfort with print or patterns, disorientation in shopping aisles, difficulties with fluorescent lights, nausea or dizziness with motion in cars or escalators? These strange symptoms are often associated with a history of migraine, whiplash or brain injury, and are not corrected by traditional glasses. Harmony Vision Care has the experience and technology to assess and assist with the symptoms of conditions known as visual stress, visual-vestibular dysfunction, and post-trauma vision syndrome. We can provide answers where others may not, and you no longer need to feel "held back" by your vision problems. Click here to request a consultation.

What our patients say...

"I always knew there was more to my eye problems, than what I had been told. In the past, I was just told that my eyes and glasses were fine, but I just knew something wasn't right".

"That was the best eye test I have ever had. I had no idea there was so much involved!"

"Being a student, I knew my eyes were important, but I had no idea how much they were holding me back. Now I can read more comfortably, for longer and not re-read so much".
