Strong visual skills support everything from reading and learning to focus, comfort, and confidence. At 730 North Optometry, our program supports both children and adults in strengthening visual abilities for clearer, more comfortable vision. Because this service is so limited in our region, many families travel from far to work with our team. With a patient-centered approach and measurable progress tracking, we offer vision therapy that truly makes a difference.
Clarity shouldn’t feel like work
Vision Therapy in Libertyville, IL
When your eyes can’t keep up
What Is Vision Therapy?
Vision therapy is a customized, vision therapist-led program that improves how the eyes track, focus, and work together. It goes beyond vision correction to strengthen the functional visual skills that support reading, attention, depth perception, and overall visual comfort. For many patients, especially children, challenges with reading or concentrating aren’t due to motivation or ability, but to the eyes struggling to keep up. Through weekly sessions and at-home exercises, we help retrain the eyes and brain to work as a coordinated team.
Vision Therapy for Children
Children rely on strong visual skills for learning, reading, sports, and everyday confidence. Vision therapy can help if your child:
-
Skips lines while reading
-
Loses their place in text
-
Confuses letters or words
-
Avoids homework or becomes easily frustrated
-
Complaints of headaches or tired eyes
-
Struggles to focus, even with “20/20” eyesight
Our program helps kids develop smoother eye tracking, better visual endurance, and improved reading comfort, often leading to noticeable differences in school performance and confidence.
Vision Therapy for Adults
Adults can also develop functional vision challenges, especially with:
-
Long hours on computers
-
Visually demanding jobs
-
Difficulty tracking lines of text
-
Frequent headaches or eye strain
-
Trouble maintaining focus
Vision therapy strengthens the visual system, so your eyes work more efficiently. Many adults tell us they didn’t realize how much effort it took to focus until therapy made it feel natural again.
RightEye Sensorimotor System™ Reading Assessment
The RightEye Sensorimotor System™ gives us a deeper understanding of how your eyes move when you read and why certain tasks may feel harder than they should. This quick, non-invasive digital assessment measures:
-
How accurately your eyes track
-
How quickly you move from word to word
-
Whether your eyes jump, skip, or regress
-
How steady your fixations are
-
Overall reading efficiency
RightEye turns eye movements into actionable data, revealing the specific skills that need strengthening. It is one reason families travel from across Lake County and beyond. Few practices offer this level of insight. The results can be life-changing for students and adults alike.
