Focusing activities include using plus and minus lenses. Often, we place these lens in a “flipper” to make them easy to hold and use therapeutically. We also complete activities where you look near to far and back again. When you add the near letters f- and d- you can make the words “fish” “dish” “fad” and “dad”. This works not only on discriminating the detail, but also visual memory and visual-verbal integration.
We use many types of lenses in vision therapy training and testing. This picture features a few styles of Polaroid glasses. Polaroid glasses are often used to test and train depth perception.
