Vision Therapy & Binocular Vision Treatment in Palos Verdes

Specialized Vision Therapy for Children and Adults in Palos Verdes

If you or your child are dealing with visual challenges like difficulty reading, balance issues, or ongoing symptoms from a concussion, the Visual Processing Institute is here to help. Located just a short drive from Palos Verdes in Torrance, our clinic provides customized vision therapy to improve how the eyes and brain work together—offering real solutions for comfort, focus, and performance.

We work with families, students, athletes, and adults from the Palos Verdes Peninsula who want to resolve persistent visual difficulties and get back to living with clarity and confidence.

What Is Vision Therapy?

Vision therapy is a clinically guided, non-surgical program that focuses on strengthening the connection between your visual system and brain. While glasses correct for visual acuity, therapy addresses how the eyes function and process information—skills essential for learning, movement, coordination, and overall well-being.

Common reasons Palos Verdes patients visit us include:

• Difficulty reading or concentrating on schoolwork

• Frequent headaches or visual fatigue

• Trouble with depth perception or hand-eye coordination

• Symptoms lingering after concussion or mild brain injury

• Visual disorientation or dizziness in crowded environments
  

Our goal is to retrain how the visual system operates in real life—not just in an eye chart exam.

Conditions We Help With

At our South Bay clinic near Palos Verdes, we treat:

• Strabismus (eye turn or alignment issues)

Why Palos Verdes Residents Choose the Visual Processing Institute

Functional & Neuro-Optometric Expertise

Our clinicians are trained in neuro-optometry, which allows us to treat complex vision challenges that involve the brain—not just the eyes. This makes our clinic a trusted resource for patients recovering from injuries or dealing with vision-based learning challenges.

Therapy That’s Tailored, Targeted, and Trackable

No two patients are alike. That’s why every therapy plan we create is based on your lifestyle, schedule, and the specific areas your visual system needs to improve. We blend hands-on therapy with guided at-home support to reinforce skill development over time.

Close to Home for Palos Verdes Families

Our Torrance location is conveniently located near Palos Verdes Estates, Rolling Hills Estates, and Rancho Palos Verdes. Whether you're coming from the hills or the coast, we're just a short drive away with flexible hours and a warm, welcoming environment.

Vision Therapy for Kids in Palos Verdes

Many children struggle in school due to visual efficiency or processing issues that aren’t caught in a regular eye exam. These can interfere with reading comprehension, attention, and classroom behavior.

Parents in Palos Verdes turn to us when their children show signs like:

• Skipping words or losing their place while reading

• Reversing letters or numbers

• Fatigue or frustration with homework

• Poor reading fluency despite average or above-average intelligence

• Diagnoses of ADHD, dyslexia, or general learning delays
  

Our pediatric vision therapy programs are designed to help children strengthen the skills they need to succeed—both in school and in life.

• Visual discomfort during or after work

• Headaches and dizziness linked to visual strain

• Recovery from stroke, accident, or concussion

• Declining visual stamina or spatial awareness
