If you think you know what to expect at Vision for Life & Success based on your previous experience with eye doctors, you’ll find that they offer a distinct and unique practice unlike what you’ll find elsewhere.

When you’ve been told that you may need surgery or another invasive procedure, turn to Vision for Life & Success first, as they just might be able to help you see life in full detail—no pain or costly surgeries required!
How It Works. Functional Vision Therapy (FVT) is a cutting edge, non-invasive treatment that can help you regain function of your eyes. While we often think of “good” vision as involving 20/20 eyesight, this is actually just one of several measures of eye functions. For clients seeking optimal vision, there are other visual processes that need to be carried out by your eyes and then successfully translated by your brain.

Some actions that FVT takes into account include proper eye alignment, optimal eye tracking and teaming, proper eye movement and focusing, and accurate visual processing. By utilizing treatments that stimulate the brain and eyes to work together, better vision can finally be attainable.
Who It Helps. If you or a loved one has a functional vision impairment, there could be lots of warning signs, like problems with reading and writing, learning disabilities, ADHD, headaches/discomfort, clumsiness, blurred vision, and more. The good news is that these are just the type of individuals that Vision for Life & Success can help! What’s more, they can also help with vision problems that result from strokes or head injuries. So when you want to complete everyday tasks with more ease and overall increase your visual abilities, turn to Vision for Life & Success.
Second Opinion. Unfortunately, there is a lot of misdiagnosis when it comes to eye issues, which can in turn lead to prescription eyewear, unnecessary surgery, and more. Rather than changing your life with glasses or expensive, painful surgeries, contact Dr. Julie and the Vision for Life & Success team for a second opinion, as FVT may provide the correction needed.

 Vision for Life & Success Reviews

Many ophthalmologists told us that Vision Therapy was a waste of money and time, after finishing my 45 weeks of therapy I can comfortably say they were very much mistaken. On my right eye I had an eye turn out and over my 45 week my incredible and kind therapist, Jenna helped me turn that eye straight and see clearly out of it. The confidence and perspective that this gave me was incredible. This program is a commitment but one I think is worth it. Thank you, Jenna and Dr. Julie Steinhauer for helping me with my eye turn out and so much more.” -Esther S.

“Imagine suddenly having problems with dizziness and feeling like you are falling over when driving. Suddenly getting anxiety when you are driving in wide open highway or feeling an out of body euphoria when driving and the need to pull over. Imagine having a panic attack going over a bridge because you do not feel grounded and it feels like you cannot drive straight over it. Imagine being afraid of passing cars because it feels like they are drifting into your lane. I experienced all of these situations that negatively affected my driving and independence.  After seeing a several doctors I learned I have a binocular vision disorder and attempted prism glasses. I was cautious of prism glasses learning that the prescription would need to be increased regularly and it would take several attempts to find the right prescription. With the glasses, I was still was having symptoms and through research I was able to find Vision for Life & Success.   Dr. Julie believes in strengthening the eye muscles, teaching my eyes to work together vs relying on prism glasses. I started the protocol a year ago with my therapist Jenna. The exercises are varied and were personalized to treat my specific condition. I am learning how to control the muscles in my eye, relaxing and tensing them. I am working on opening my peripheral view, balance, eye tracking and decreasing my anxiety.  I have noticed an huge improvement in my symptoms. They are either not present or they are mild enough that its manageable. I am driving again on the highway. I am increasing the time I drive and increasing the distance I drive. I recently crossed my first bridge with no symptoms of instability after going almost 2 years of avoiding bridges.  My day to day routine has improved immensely.  I am thankful to Dr. Julie , Jenna  and the Vision for Life & Success staff ( hey Jamie and Jordan !).” -Jess

“The improvements in my husband’s vision since starting this program last year have been phenomenal!! We were told by a neuro-ophthalmologist that there was nothing that could be done to help Kenny with his nystagmus, but through Kenny’s use of the Syntonics program and the dedication of his therapist Cheri, his nystagmus has decreased 90-95%. This has led to Kenny regaining his ability to read and helped him feel whole again. His improved vision has also been instrumental in helping him walk again now that he doesn’t feel like he’s learning to walk on a moving platform. The results we’ve seen have made this program worth every penny and every minute we’ve spent. Thank you, Dr. Julie! You, your staff and this program are a gift from God and we will be forever grateful that we found you online.”

“I was prescribed prism glasses but I could not wear them as they caused much nausea. I was also concerned that they would weaken my eye muscles and that the prescription would need to be increased regularly.  I believe in brain plasticity so, I researched eye exercises and luckily found  Vision for Life. I started the protocol a year ago. The exercises are varied, targeted and personalized, and prescribed for the specific conditions. Sherry T., my therapist is very knowledgeable, kind, encouraging and easy to work with. and closely monitored my progress ( or lack of). Any concerns are followed up quickly by Dr. Julie. As a bonus, through the exercises,  some problems that I was unaware of were uncovered, and these were followed up by my own ophthalmologist . I am learning how to control the muscles in my eye, relaxing and tensing them, and being conscious of these minute muscle movements.I have noticed an improvement in my far vision. I have also not needed an increase in my prescription glasses and am still able to function without the prism glasses.   Thank you, Dr. Julie and Sherry T!” -J.V.

“I had a stroke which left me with scattered vision and I was unable to drive my car, golf and enjoy life. Working with Vision for Life & Success and my therapist Sherry I am now able to do all those things and more. It was the worst thing ever to lose my vision and I’m grateful for their expertise in correcting my vision.”
