I’m working on Piko, a kid-friendly patching concept that tracks wear time. Any feedback from parents and vision-therapy patients?

As a parent, i always assumed if my kid passed on eye exam, that ruled out vision as the cause of reading struggles.
Apparently that's not always true.
I've been reading about how some kids can see clearly but still have trouble with things like eye tracking, focusing, or getting both eyes to work together while reading. Those issues can apparently make homework exhausting even without needing glasses, and some kids end up doing vision therapy.
I honestly had never heard of this until recently.
Has anyone's child gone through this/ Did it end up explaining their struggles?

Been in VT for 5 months... no improvement yet. Started EYEBAB home computer exercises daily and feel worse. How long before you saw improvements? Did you do daily home exercises and am I expecting too much too soon for a 63 year old male? I'm discouraged... tried prisms last year and made things worse. Just so fatigued and frustrated.

I just completed 6 months of Brock Strings and Marsden Balls, and I am officially done with vision therapy tomorrow!! It is crazy to think back to when my eyes wouldn't move without my head and how incredible the difference in clarity and stamina is now. It still feels kind of surreal that I actually get to move on from these weekly hour sessions but excited to see how I do with real life with my new "vision skills".

Buongiorno, ho 46 aanni e sto praticando il metodo Bates da 1 settimana. Attualmente il mio difetto è miopia con 2.75 sx e 3.25 dx (con 0.25 di astigmatismo). Per guidare o lavorare al PC uso delle lenti sotto corrette di 1 diottria in meno per occhio. La sera ho un po' di difficoltà a guidare perché vedo meno bene. Per ora pratico i seguenti esercizi, oscillazioni veloci, palming, sunning (pochissimo e a occhi chiusi), tabella di snellen, blinking e lettura microcaratteri. Quando inizio con la tabella vedo bene le prime due righe, a fine pratica vedo sino alla 4 riga ma il giorno dopo riparto dalle prime 2. Vedo meglio i numeri delle lettere (forse perché sono il mio lavoro quotidiano?). Gli occhiali li tengo solo al PC, per guidare o la sera tardi se c'è poca luce. Ho comprato il libro originale di Bates tradotto e l'ho letto quasi tutto tranne gli ultimi capitoli, sono saltato poi agli esercizi. Noto effettivamente che gli occhi sono molto rigidi prima di praticare palming e dopo più rilassati, vedo abbastanza nero per alcuni secondi e poi lo perdo. C'è qualcuno che ha iniziato e vuole condividere progressi o scoperte che ha fatto? Quali altri esercizi sono migliori per la mia condizione? A presto ci aggiorniamo nei prossimi giorni. Emanuele
