Vision Therapist careers

A Vision Therapist helps individuals improve their visual skills and address vision-related problems through therapeutic techniques. You might work in clinics, hospitals, or private practices. Vision Therapists focus on assessing visual processing issues, developing and implementing customised therapy programmes, and monitoring progress. You’ll work with patients of all ages to enhance visual function and support overall visual health.

Vision Therapists play an important role in managing and improving visual impairments. You’ll need to be patient and attentive, with strong analytical and communication skills. You’ll collaborate with optometrists and other healthcare professionals to ensure patients receive comprehensive care and achieve their visual goals.
