Opto-mization NeuroVisual Performance in Victoria and Nanaimo, British Columbia

“Our mission is to make sure that no kids or adults are left struggling with these treatable visual conditions. We need to overhaul how we think about vision, and change the testing process.

We help people see with their eyes and brains. Do you suffer from learning disabilities or attention problems? What about dizziness, migraines or ongoing post-concussion symptoms? You may have a problem with how your eyes and brain work together.

The solution? Our Opto-mization™ Training process. We’ve helped kids and adults across North America see and experience their world more clearly and comfortably.

We also offer other specialty services, such as sports vision therapy, myopia control, and treatment for dry eye symptoms.

Ergoptics and Our Optical Team

Looking for glasses that also address your whole visual system? Ergoptics glasses take into account not just your visual acuity, but the way your eyes work together as a team. The result is more efficient reading and writing and less headaches and eyestrain while working in school or at the office.

Have a child who struggles with reading? Eye tracking problems are a leading cause of learning problems. Reading, writing, spelling, and attention all depend on more than just seeing clearly.

My wife and I came here to both get a pair of glasses, and it was absolutely delightful. We spent our first appointment with Ava. She brought out lots of frame options fitting both of our individual needs and wants. I liked that they had little sample lenses set up to see how different tints/prescriptions could have an effect on your glasses. I ended up getting blue tint, and I love it! I personally picked up my glasses from Kyralee, and went with my wife to get hers from Taylor. All three of them were caring, super knowledgeable, and never made us feel rushed. I couldn't ask for a better experience. The front staff were very nice as well. And although we didn't get our eyes checked here, we're both looking forward to when it's time next year!

Never Heard of Vision Therapy
or Neuro Optometry?

Research shows that vision is more than just seeing clearly, but current optical treatment plans overlook how vision really works. Dr. Cameron McCrodan, OD, FCOVD, shares his journey in neuro-visual optimization through the eyes of his patients.

Specialized Eye Care For You


Vision Therapy helps patients improve their foundation for reading, learning and playing sports. It’s a series of custom and individualized activities and exercises which function as a form of neuro-optometric rehabilitation.

The goal is to enhance eye tracking, focusing and eye teaming abilities as well as eye-hand coordination and visual processing speed.

The program is not only for children. Vision Therapy is effective for adults, especially if they are motivated to improve their visual abilities.

More On Vision Therapy


Sports Vision Training isn’t about correcting your vision. You wear glasses or contacts for that. Vision Therapy is about training (or retraining) the brain to achieve maximum efficiency in the way it processes and responds to visual inputs.

Sports Vision is about training people with excellent vision to process and respond to what they see faster and better. Using a personalized and customized series of techniques and exercises, the brain learns to respond more accurately and efficiently. It’s just like muscle memory. Once you know and refine exactly how to react, you can do it again and again, and get better every time.

More On Sports Vision Training


Traumatic brain injury such as a concussion or stroke, or diseases such as MS, cerebral palsy, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), can result in potentially devastating visual problems.

There are also a number of inherited brain conditions that can similarly prevent the normal development of the visual system.

Fortunately, we've helped numerous patients rehabilitate and recover from their visual problems, ultimately reducing or eliminating headaches, dizziness, poor balance, and other symptoms. Serving Victoria and Nanaimo, British Columbia.
