Frequently Asked Questions at Eye to Eye Optometry

We provide a comprehensive range of eye care services, including health-first eye exams for all ages, advanced digital lens fittings, vision therapy for headaches and blurry vision, concussion rehabilitation focused on symptom management, and specialized sports vision and neuroplasticity training. Our clinic also offers retinal scans, multifocal contact lens fittings (with a 90%+ success rate), and in-motion gym-based vision training. Whether you’re seeking routine eye care or specialized support after a concussion, our team delivers patient-centered, educational care for families, athletes, and individuals in neighborhoods like Altadore, Lakeview, and Glenbrook.

Vision therapy at Eye to Eye Optometry combines traditional exercises with advanced neurofeedback tools like Neurotracker, used by NASA and elite athletes, to address issues such as headaches, blurry vision, difficulty with reading, and eye muscle alignment. It’s designed for children struggling in school, adults with visual strain, and concussion patients needing neurological rehabilitation. Our tailored programs are also ideal for athletes seeking to improve reaction time and visual processing. If you or your child experience persistent vision challenges or want to enhance visual performance, vision therapy may be recommended as part of your personalized care plan.

Our sports vision and concussion rehab programs are built on evidence-based protocols, leveraging technology used by NHL players, Olympic athletes, and the US Air Force. We utilize Neurotracker for visual processing, prism lenses for eye muscle realignment, and in-motion training in partnership with local gyms. Clinical data shows up to a 20% improvement in ice hockey performance and successful return-to-work for concussion patients. Each rehabilitation plan is customized, combining elite-level tools with educational support, serving both professional athletes and locals recovering from mild traumatic brain injury across Calgary’s southwest communities.
