La diferencia de nuestros hijos

No siempre a simple vista

Solo porque tu hijo se está desempeñando bien académicamente, no necesariamente significa que no está luchando con un problema que le está volviendo su vida más difícil.

¿Qué significa esto? Compáralo con alguien yendo a su trabajo diariamente, pero solo con la mitad de herramientas en su caja de herramientas. Ellos podrían ser inteligentes y hábiles para completar el trabajo, pero tienen que trabajar mucho más para obtener el mismo resultado que otro estudiante. Lo que deberían ser veinte minutos de tarea toma dos horas.

Para los niños, la escuela ocupa esencialmente el mismo lugar en sus vidas como un trabajo lo hace para un adulto. No solo es la habilidad de uno para no solo desempeñarse bien, sino también si son capaces de operar con las mismas herramientas que los demás. No es una experiencia placentera darte cuenta que has puesto el doble trabajo en lo que estás haciendo que la persona a lado de ti.

Como dijo un estudiante: ¿Así que me estás diciendo que necesito un destornillador y tengo una moneda?

La respuesta a esa pregunta, más a menudo de lo que podríamos pensar, es si.

Resumen

Es muy fácil asumir que algo como la terapia visual o tratamiento de mala visión es sólo necesaria cuando un niño tiene una condición suficientemente severa para funcionar correctamente o no en su vida diaria. Ese no es siempre el caso. Solo porque un problema se considere “menor” no significa que no está impactando en la calidad de vida y que puede ser ignorada.

Testimonials

I haven't actually used the optometrist side, so my review is limited to the vision therapy offered. This office was recommended by my occupational therapist for the treatment of my double vision following a stroke.

Claire A.

Love this location. I had a brain injury accident from day one one. All the team make you feel you still important and hope in the horizon after when the medical system fell you miserably. Dr. Ikeda very professional and very understanding about your issue. Two tombs up.

Jim K.

My husband and I were immediately impressed with Dr Ikeda. I was hit by a car while cycling which caused broken bones and three brain injuries. The brain injuries caused double vision. Dr. Ikeda examined my eyes and got me started on vision therapy with his occupational therapist who specializes in vision therapy. She (Chris) is absolutely great. I am impressed with the array of tools used to help recover my binocular vision. I am doing things I never thought were possible (balance boards etc). Chris pushes me and keeps me motivated. I really enjoy my sessions with her. The office staff is always friendly and they have a wonderful appointment reminder tool that makes it easy to keep my calendar up to date. I am happy the rehab center at Little Co. of Mary recommended them!!

The Vision Therapy is handled in a separate office through a different door from the shared waiting room. Chris, the vision therapist, has a wide and varied assortment of tools, equipment and resources to best evaluate and treat most vision issues. After just a few visits, my double vision became easier to control, using exercises developed during the therapy process. It was time well-spent.

I have been coming here since I can remember. I love it here. The staff is so amazing and nice. They explain everything they gonna do and never make you feel rushed. Dr. Ikeda has always been my doctor and I would never want another one. He is the doctor for my whole family and is always asking how everyone is doing. I am also so crazy about picking out my frames and have to try so many and each person who helps me take the time and lets me try them all on. I would never want to go anywhere else! I definitely would recommend this office to anyone looking for a great eye doctor.

This is not for the eye exam but for the frames selection portion. I brought my prescription from Kaiser here with my VSP insurance. The reception staff was very polite and professional. Manny helped me to pick out frames and explain my coverage. Very helpful and patient not like the individual at the other place I rated here on Yelp. I was running late and he still helped me and was not bothered at all. I am so glad I came here ..........very pleased.

Very professional staff and pleasant.
