I was diagnosed with ADHD and right now
I have medications that I’m taking. Would the VT program benefit me? -So
this is a tricky question, because ADHD oftentimes is a diagnosis due to the
inability to pay attention or focus on near tasks. If the reason that you have ADHD is because you’re having a hard time focusing because of
your vision getting blurry, you’re getting eyestrain, you’re getting
headaches, you’re having a hard time because you feel like your system is
failing you, and the medication kind of forces you to focus on these tasks, then yes, vision therapy is amazing for that. ADHD is not always caused by visual
problems but is about two times more likely if you are diagnosed with ADHD
you may also have a vision problem, as well. So we would have to do binocular
vision assessment to fully determine if that is something that’s going to be a
benefit for you, doing the therapy program, but it’s not something I can
guarantee you can go off your medication for
