Child psychologist Dr. Sara Morrow describes how she discovered vision therapy and the success her son, Zephen has had over the course of the past three and a half years. She describes how he has gained alignment of his eyes and emerging depth perception.
Zephen’s diagnoses from the developmental optometrist at age 10 were as follows:

• Alternating exotropia (both eyes could turn outward, a form a strabismus)
• Vertical strabismus of left eye
• Vertical heterophoria (a vertical misalignment of the eyes that, a type of binocular vision dysfunction)
• Supression of binocular vision
• Fusion with defective stereopsis (inability for his brain to fuse together the images from his two eyes)
• Fourth nerve palsy (tilting his head to turn his right eye forward, an accommodation to see better)
• Spasm of accommodation, (both eyes, trouble adjusting eye muscles transitioning from near to far)
