See Clear Associates, LLC – New Providence, NJ
When the brain experiences trauma—whether due to a concussion, stroke, neurological disorder, or other injury—it can have a significant effect on the visual system. Neuro optometric rehabilitation is a highly specialized branch of vision care that addresses these changes in visual function by retraining the brain and eyes to work together more efficiently. At See Clear Associates, LLC, we are proud to offer expert neuro optometric rehabilitation services to help patients regain clarity, stability, and confidence in their vision following neurological events.
What Is Neuro Optometric Rehabilitation?
Neuro optometric rehabilitation is an individualized, non-invasive treatment program designed to improve visual function after a neurological injury or condition. Unlike routine vision care, which may focus on acuity (20/20 vision) or eye health, neuro-optometric therapy targets the underlying functional visual deficits that affect how the brain interprets visual information.
This therapy is especially beneficial for individuals who have experienced:
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI) or concussion
- Stroke
- Cerebral palsy
- Multiple sclerosis
- Parkinson’s disease
- Post-viral syndromes (including long COVID)
- Developmental delays or neurological disorders in children
Symptoms Treated by Neuro Optometric Rehabilitation
Many people with neurological injuries experience subtle but debilitating visual issues that impact their daily life. Common symptoms that may be improved with neuro-optometric rehabilitation include:
- Blurred or double vision
- Light sensitivity
- Difficulty with balance and coordination
- Headaches and eye strain
- Problems with depth perception
- Trouble focusing, reading, or scanning
- Visual field loss
- Motion sensitivity or dizziness in visually busy environments
At See Clear Associates, we perform comprehensive functional vision evaluations to determine whether these issues are caused by neurological dysfunction and to design a personalized therapy program.
How Treatment Works at See Clear Associates, LLC
After a thorough neuro-optometric evaluation, our experienced optometrists develop a custom treatment plan. Neuro optometric rehabilitation may involve:
- Therapeutic lenses or prism glasses to improve spatial orientation and reduce visual stress
- Vision therapy exercises tailored to rebuild visual-motor skills, visual processing, and eye coordination
- Light-filtering lenses to reduce photophobia and enhance visual comfort
- Balance and movement integration to coordinate vision with physical therapy or occupational therapy efforts
- Home-based visual rehabilitation programs for ongoing progress outside of office visits
These techniques are adjusted regularly as the patient improves, ensuring that the therapy evolves with their recovery journey.

A: Vision therapy addresses a wide range of visual issues, while neuro optometric rehabilitation specifically targets problems resulting from neurological trauma or dysfunction. It incorporates both visual and cognitive rehabilitation strategies.
Q: What should I expect during my first visit?
A: Your first visit will include a comprehensive neuro-optometric evaluation, including tests for eye tracking, eye teaming, depth perception, visual field, and more. We will review your medical history and current symptoms to design the right treatment plan for you.
Q: Is the treatment covered by insurance?
A: Insurance coverage for neuro optometric rehabilitation varies depending on your provider and plan. Our office can help verify your benefits and assist you with submitting claims when applicable.
Q: Can children undergo neuro optometric rehabilitation?
A: Yes. Children with developmental delays, concussions, or visual processing disorders can benefit greatly from early intervention. Our team is experienced in pediatric neuro-optometric therapy and creates age-appropriate programs.
Q: How long does treatment typically last?
A: Treatment duration varies depending on the severity of the visual dysfunction and the patient’s goals. Some patients may see improvements in weeks, while others may continue therapy for several months.
