Description

Are you working with children whose coordination, reading, or handwriting problems don’t respond to typical interventions? Struggling with cases where poor posture, clumsy motor skills, or letter reversals leave you and your patients frustrated? Often, these are not purely behavioral or learning issues—they’re rooted in hidden eye movement and near vision dysfunctions that standard treatments overlook.

 

In this powerful program, you’ll learn the specialized vision assessment techniques that go beyond the basics, helping you uncover the root cause of these challenges. Through hands-on demonstrations and case studies, you’ll gain tools that seamlessly integrate vision, balance, and proprioception, providing targeted interventions with real, lasting results.

 

With DIY and high-tech solutions like the Brock String, Hart Chart, and prism techniques, you'll discover how to improve critical functional skills, such as reading fluency, posture, balance, and hand-eye coordination. Walk away equipped to tackle even the most complex cases, increase patient compliance and progress, and confidently offer specialized care that sets you apart.

 

This training will give you the skills to confidently identify and treat visual issues that others miss—boosting outcomes, reducing frustration, and empowering you to make a lasting impact on your patients’ lives. Join us and master these essential techniques to transform your practice and your patients’ success.

Objectives

  1. Demonstrate the three-component model of vision by assessing its impact on functional skills such as reading, balance, and hand-eye coordination. (Hopkins, 2019)
  2.  Perform visual system assessments, evaluating eye movement and near vision skills that influence patient outcomes in motor tasks. (Scheiman, 2011)
  3. Develop and implement targeted activities that improve ocular motor and near vision skills, enhancing patient abilities in areas like handwriting, sports, and daily coordination tasks. (CITT-ART, 2021)
  4. Differentiate between reading challenges due to dyslexia and those stemming from ocular motor/near vision deficits to guide tailored interventions that support academic and functional performance. (Shaywitz, 2012)
  5. Identify common visual pathologies (e.g., convergence insufficiency, strabismus) and describe their functional impact on pediatric patients' daily activities and movement patterns. (Fraser, 2022)
  6. Apply vision training tools and techniques (e.g., Brock String, Hart Chart) to reduce letter reversals and enhance visual processing, supporting improved literacy and functional independence. (Levy, 2020)
  7. Utilize coding and documentation strategies for vision-related dysfunctions to support reimbursement and highlight functional gains in patient progress notes. (Chauhan, 2023)
