The author and her 2 daughters were successfully treated for learning-related vision problems - Dr. White as an adult. She brings her unique perspective on vision therapy, due to her experiences as a parent, a patient, and a clinical psychologist, to this book as a support for people of all ages with learning-related vision problems.

This book, written for the public, is a classic that is still as timely as it was when first released in the clarity with which it shares insights into the visual process. Bob makes, what for most of us is difficult to share, his points with ease and with many very clear demonstrations what the reader can do at home or on the go to help them truly know how to improve their vision. As Bob used to like to say so often, “The past is prologue to the future.” This book was enough ahead of its time that it is still timely now as it was then. I hope that you find this useful in your communication with your patients. I envisioned this on your book shelves, but more importantly in your reception area and being given out and circulated in your community. Consider getting a few extra copies for local Libraries. Softbound, 97 pages.

Developing healthy visual-motor abilities is more difficult in the complex stimulus of today’s world than ever before. Our visual experiences can be overwhelmed by the vast complexity of artificial colors and sounds which did not exist in our ancestors’ lives. Much more time is spent indoors, exposed to a myriad of unnatural colors, movement and imagery. We hibernate inside, interacting with machines instead of being out in the sunlight, looking at the far horizons, exploring natural environments. More and more time is spent sitting rather than moving, watching rather than doing. This book has an overview of the development of vision, with a checklist of warning signs of vision problems-based on the studies of behavioral optometry; a discussion of the importance of integrating all the senses equally in the development of optimal visual skills, rooted in the field of occupational therapy - Practical, playful activities designed to improve visual skills in both adults and children. Excellent for use at home, in the clinic, at school, or amid outdoor settings. Softbound, 100 pages.
