About Academy of Vision and Learning
We work with children and adults to help them to achieve their potentials through developing essential vision skills. These vision problems may interfere their ability of reading, learning and even paying attention. Unfortunately those problems are not diagnosed during vision screen and routine eye exam in most eye doctor offices. Good news is that Academy of Vision and Learning is dedicated to diagnose and treat these vision problems. We are here to help empower our patients with adequate visual skills for success.
