What is low vision rehabilitation?
Dr. Gilliland explains that low vision is a level of vision loss that can be caused by eye diseases, brain diseases, or anything that reduces the eye’s ability to see. EyeXcel offers rehabilitation that utilizes all kinds of adaptive means and optical tools to improve functionality. This can vastly improve the quality of life for the person with aging eyes having trouble to read.
What is vision therapy?
Vision therapy is the other part to vision rehabilitation for those that have difficulty processing the visual information, how the brain sees things. The eyes may be functioning properly, but the vision information gets lost or miscommunicated once it reaches the brain. This can very helpful for children that have difficulty reading or focusing on the board in a classroom, or someone who has suffered a brain injury. Vision therapy can help regain this ability.

They are here to help your family in any stage of life in all the kinds of visual needs you may have.
