Neuro-Optometric Vision Therapy in Santa Monica, CA

Vision Wellness Rooted in the Heart of Santa Monica
At the Visual Processing Institute, we provide comprehensive vision therapy services in Santa Monica tailored to children, teens, and adults experiencing visual challenges. Our team is committed to helping you or your loved ones overcome obstacles like eye strain, poor coordination, and reading fatigue through structured, personalized treatment plans.
Santa Monica is a vibrant city where life moves fast—academically, professionally, and recreationally. Whether you're a student struggling to focus in class, an athlete needing sharper hand-eye coordination, or an adult dealing with digital eye fatigue, our therapy programs are designed to restore comfort, function, and confidence in your visual system.
Our Vision Therapy Approach
Vision therapy is a clinical, non-surgical program of visual activities that retrains the brain and eyes to work more effectively together. It helps correct a range of conditions that standard eye exams and glasses don’t fully resolve.
At our nearby office, just minutes from central Santa Monica, we treat issues such as:
Difficulty tracking or focusing
Strabismus (eye turn)
Amblyopia (lazy eye)
Double vision or blurred vision
Convergence insufficiency
Visual processing delays linked to ADHD or learning disorders
Vision complications following concussion or TBI
Every treatment plan is based on an in-depth evaluation that examines how your eyes move, focus, and perceive visual information. The result is a highly customized plan tailored to your age, condition, and lifestyle.
What Makes VPI Different?
At the Visual Processing Institute, our approach emphasizes:
One-on-one, hands-on therapy: Your sessions are guided by trained vision therapists under the direction of neuro-optometrists.
Use of advanced tools: Including digital tracking software, sensory-motor exercises, and virtual reality simulations.
Evidence-based outcomes: We’ve helped hundreds of patients reduce symptoms and gain lasting improvements.
Collaborative communication: We coordinate with schools, occupational therapists, and medical providers when needed.
