Home Vision Therapy
HTS is a revolutionary new advance in eye care. It's a computerized program that helps eliminate the symptoms of eyestrain.
This is the most common visual complaint of students and office workers today. Developed by Dr. Jeffrey Cooper, MS, OD, FAAO, a clinical professor at the State University of New York, College of Optometry, and Rodney K. Bortel, the HTS Home Vision Therapy System is prescribed by eye doctors across the United States. |
HTS is fitness training for your eye muscles. It's a re-education program for your eyes. And, just like learning to ride a bike, once you teach your eye muscles how to work their best, they don't forget.
Why do you need vision therapy?
Eyestrain is not a seeing problem, so glasses alone won't fix the problem. It's an eye muscle problem. Our eyes were never intended for spending long periods of time on close work such as reading or at a computer. Eyestrain is caused by the visual demands of modern living.
The muscles of the eyes must work together as a team -- learning to focus and relax as needed. If the eye muscles are not coordinated, they fatigue. The result can be eyestrain symptoms. Eye exercises can improve how your eye muscles work and relieve your symptoms.
