Steps to Get Started

Step 1: FUNCTIONAL VISION EXAM

This appointment involves an in depth look at your eye tracking, eye teaming, measuring depth perception and binocular vision.

This sometimes involves prescribing therapeutic lenses to alleviate your symptoms.

At the end of this exam, an explanation of your condition along with recommendations for further treatment will be discussed.

Sometimes symptoms can be managed with specialized lenses only or an individualized vision therapy program might be recommended.

Step 2: VISUAL PERCEPTUAL EXAM

This appointment is approximately 1.5 hours long and is performed by one of our vision therapists.

In this portion of the assessment, we perform multiple hands-on visual motor activities to assess visual processing, gross motor and visual perceptual skills.

The results of this battery of testing will be scored and gone over with Dr. Pitts at a separate visit.

Step 3: CONSULT WITH DR. PITTS

After testing is complete, Dr. Pitts will review all results and discuss your detailed report explaining diagnoses, possible accommodations needed for school or work, and an individualized vision therapy plan if recommended.

Cypress Vision Therapy operates as a private pay, out-of-network provider and does not accept assignment from insurance companies.

However, the cost of our vision therapy program—should it be recommended—is similar to that of braces or LASIK surgery.

We accept cash, checks, and credit cards, and patients can also use Health Savings Accounts and Flexible Spending Accounts to cover evaluations and vision therapy expenses.

*Important Note:

If you’ve had an exam at another office, please bring those records with you before your appointment.

We gladly accept referrals from other providers, occupational and speech therapists, or you can refer yourself!
