Visual Processing and Learning Therapy

Does your child seem bright, but is struggling at school?

They may have difficulties with their Visual Processing skills. It something that is easily missed, as many people have never heard of it.

Visual Processing is all about how your child interprets the information that is on the page. To interpret the information correctly your child requires several LEARNED skills. These skills include:

  • Visual Memory and sequencing – Remembering sight words and for spelling
  • Visual Analysis skills – Being able to determine the difference between similar words. Eg. Then and Them
  • Visual Directionality and Laterality – Important for letter reversals and maths
  • Visual Tracking – Skipping words and lines when reading

We understand that it can be difficult to have a child who is struggling and becoming frustrated at school. Book an appointment for an Enhanced Eye Test to determine whether visual processing therapy can help your child today.

Vision Training for Sports Vision, Motion Sickness and Brain Injury

The Eye Collective is also proud to be able to offer vision training for other conditions such as brain injury, sports vision and motion sickness.

As many difficulties with these conditions arise from an imbalance between what the eyes see, and what the balance centres in the ears feel. By conducting vision training to help re-calibrate this imbalance, improving eye tracking, visual perception and peripheral awareness, we can help to minimise motion sickness, increase sporting performance and improve comfort post brain injury in both adults and children
