FREE LECTURE: Seeing the Light: Syntonics in the Treatment of Acquired Brain Injury by Robert S Fox, OD, FCOVD

Description

Two day workshop, 11.5 hours running time.

Visual processing problems are very common following brain injury. Hidden visual problems are often overlooked and when not treated they can impair or lengthen rehabilitation success. This course will assist you in diagnosing and treating patients with visual deficits following brain injury. How to test for the specific visual deficits accompanying brain injury, concussion, stroke and trauma will be covered along with treatment protocols including lenses, prisms, filters, and neuro-optometric rehabilitation. Dynamic case presentation will give you the opportunity to experience – from the moment they call your office through testing and treatment – the steps of helping more brain injury patients recover successfully.

Learning Objectives

  1. Understand specific vision deficits following brain injury.
  2. Understand the examination of a patient with brain injury.
  3. Understand treatment options for patients with brain injury.
  4. Understand treatment protocols for patients with brain injury.
  5. Immediately use your new neuro optometric toolbox to help brain injury patients recover successfully.
