Behavioural Optometry in Williamstown

Beyond simply focusing on the clarity of your vision, behavioural optometry delves into assessing your entire visual system and its impact on daily activities.

Our behavioural optometrist evaluates how your vision relates to essential tasks such as reading, learning, engaging in sports, and computer usage. This comprehensive approach also includes understanding how your vision interacts with specific conditions, such as myopia or Parkinson's disease.

During a behavioural optometry session, our team is dedicated to:

  • Preventing the onset of vision-related problems
  • Detecting and addressing issues to halt further progression
  • Optimizing your visual system for peak performance in professional, educational, and daily settings

How Behavioural Optometry Can Help

Jeanine (Nean) McKenzie, our behavioural optometrist based in Fitzgerald Optometry and a key member of the Fitzgerald Optometry family, has a keen interest in the benefits of behavioural optometry, particularly for children.

Nean offers guidance, precise prescriptions, and targeted vision therapy to enhance:

  • Eye focusing and coordination, crucial for reading, writing, and cognitive tasks
  • Eye tracking, vital for smooth reading
  • Management of amblyopia (lazy eye) and strabismus (crossed eyes)
  • Myopia control, addressing difficulties with distant vision
  • Visual perceptual and processing abilities, ensuring vision issues do not impact educational outcomes

For those in search of a behavioral optometrist in Williamstown ready to address these concerns and more, Fitzgerald Optometry is here for you. Our experienced team is eager to support your visual health needs.
