Success Stories

Dear Dr. Bazin,

I just wanted to thank you and your staff for all of your help!

Just to give you a little background, my daughter's teacher voiced a concern at the end of first grade. She had issues with reading, spelling, crossword puzzles, etc. She always had a ton of homework and was always the last one in class to finish an assignment. We took Elisabeth to an optometrist, and she was prescribed glasses. The next year she continued to have issues, and she was prescribed bifocals. The following year her sight still did not seem to improve. We went to an ophthalmologist who told us her eyes were fine, and she should not be using glasses at all. I voiced my concern that it seemed as though she was seeing letters from other words when she was reading. The doctor told me she may have accommodative insufficiency, but there was nothing that could be done for that; we just needed to hope that she would outgrow it. I decided to look more into accommodative insufficiency myself. I searched the internet and that is how I found you and hope.

During our initial visit, I purposely did not go into detail on all the issues that were going on, so I could get an unbiased opinion from you. I was impressed with how well you knew what was going on with my daughter. From the tests you knew exactly the kind of activities that were hard for her to master. At last I felt there was someone who knew what the issue really was and knew what to do about it.

With the therapy, I am happy to report Elisabeth is now getting A's and B's! Her homework is manageable, and she has time to go out and play. She still has a difficult time with spelling, I'm sure from all the years of seeing the words incorrectly, but we're working on it.

Thank you Dr. Bazin for helping Elisabeth move towards her full potential.

Dear Dr. Bazin,

I would like to thank you for all you have done that has led to the incredible improvement of Chris' eye sight.

When Chris was first diagnosed by another doctor, we were told that the vision in his left eye was 20/400. We were also told there was some hope for improvement, but he was already 4 years old, and there was little time to correct his problem. I went home and cried. After I got a hold of myself, I thanked God for the vision he had and got him into glasses. He hated the glasses and said they did not help. I wish I had payed more attention to his complaints, but I waited a while before taking him back for a check-up. During this exam the doctor had him look at an eye chart, and that was it. He stated there was no improvement and to start patching the eye. This was a very popular ophthalmologist. I was not impressed.

I went to an optometrist for a second opinion, without telling him about my concerns. He gave Chris a full eye exam. He said he would give me a prescription if that was all I wanted, but it was his recommendation that Chris get in to see a specialist as soon as possible. He believed that Chris' eye problem needed more than corrective lenses, and a more in depth exam would be the best course of action. He recommended you.

When you examined him, you lowered his prescription an incredible amount. Immediately, Chris could see a difference while using his glasses. He went to therapy for a little over a year. His eyes improved a great deal during that time. When it was time for Chris to have his eyes examined this past November, I called to make an appointment with you. I don't think I'll ever trust anyone else but you. Chris' left eye had improved to 20/40. No wonder he was complaining about his glasses again. Chris really could see without his glasses. He uses his new prescription while reading and doing homework but feels very confident without them while playing outside or just hanging around. We are so happy and thankful for his progress, and I have no doubt in my mind we owe it to the therapy he received at Vision Development. Thank you all so much!!!

With Sincerity and Appreciation,
Carrie Worth


Dr. Bazin,

I just wanted to share with you what a joy field day was for all of us this year. For the first time, Byron and Braxton seemed happy to be involved. They both did very well and it was obvious that there was great improvement in coordination, awareness of surroundings, overall self esteem, and enjoyment in athletics. Even their grandparents commented on the difference. The day was truly a positive experience for all of us, and I thank you so much for your efforts over the past year.

It finally feels like our boys are on the right track and the successful results of vision therapy are evident to us in many, many ways. THANK YOU, a thousand times, THANK YOU!
Carrie Jeske
