Vision overlaps with SO much - cognitive
processing, eye gaze switching, tracking, figure ground (being able to make
sense of multiple elements you see), vestibular ocular reflex (image stabilization),
depth perception, and I'm sure I'm leaving stuff out!
I'll have vision therapy (VT) with
Ann next week, and then I'll see Dr. Margolis (my developmental optometrist) at
the end of the month.
Christina (CBT -cognitive behavioral therapy) is very helpful, and
has learned about vestibular and visual systems, and disorders. But it's accurate to say that Joyce (Feldenkrais
- balance), Ann and Dr. Margolis understand much more.
Anxiety/avoidance is not a good reason
to stop - as in "doing VT makes me anxious" - but doing VT indefinitely
isn't either. I need to talk with Ann,
and Dr. Margolis about my future treatment - "what makes sense for me to work
on, that's specific to VT? What frequency of sessions?".
Where do I want to put my
energy/efforts moving forward?
