Welcome to GRAND Developmental Vision Institute
Developmental vision problems are visual abnormalities that interfere with the ability to function in our high-tech, continuing education society. Our visual system can undergo tremendous stress these days as students and adults constantly use their near vision at school and at their jobs. The visual demand required to perform prolonged near-vision tasks can often be overwhelming. When the visual system has not developed efficiently or can’t cope with the visual stress, visual disorders can occur. Developmental vision disorders can negatively affect:
-
- Eye Movement Control
- Focusing Ability
- Binocular Stability
- Depth Perception
- Visual-Motor Integration Skills
- Visual Perception Skills
- Visual Memory
Most people don’t realize there is more to our vision than just our eyes. Once the image we are looking at arrives at the back of our eyes, it has to travel throughout our brain in order for the images to be understood. Therefore we actually have a system which provides us with good vision.
Vision therapy is much like “physical therapy”, but rather than treating the muscles of the body, it works on the eyes and visual system. It is an invaluable tool that has changed not only our patients’ vision, but has improved many related areas of their lives as well.

Signs & Symptoms of a Vision Problem
Unfortunately, many people do not recognize that they have a vision problem. Most certainly, children rarely report they are having visual difficulties. There are physical clues that point to possible vision problems, but surprisingly, many of the symptoms that would indicate a person is having vision problems seem entirely unrelated to vision. Yet, these symptoms are manifesting as a direct result of a vision problem.
