Our special guest this week, Dr. Katherine Cioffi, Neuro-Optometrist, Director of Vision Therapy at MyVisionFirst will present on:
What If Everything You Knew About Vision Was Wrong?
Healthcare has it wrong about the eyes! This presentation serves to differentiate the important distinction between eyesight and vision, explore how vision directly impacts so many areas of life including reading, learning, aging, sports, recovery, and screen use, and highlight that hidden functional vision problems are everywhere! We will dive deeper into the nature of functional vision problems as well as their signs and symptoms, and discuss the unique visual challenges our digital world presents. We'll end with some tools and exercises you can implement to support your daily visual demands.
