Episode 2: The Behavioral Optometrist’s Toolbox – More Than Just Glasses

In this episode of See It Differently, we go beyond the prescription pad.

Most people think of optometry as a quick eye chart, a pair of lenses, and you're done. But behavioral optometry brings a whole new layer to how we evaluate and support visual function, especially in kids who are struggling in school, coordination, or daily life. We unpack what’s really inside the behavioral optometrist’s toolbox: tools that assess how the eyes move, focus, and team together; but also how the brain interprets visual information. It’s about function, not just clarity.

You'll walk away with a clearer sense of why two kids with the same prescription might need totally different treatment—and why glasses alone aren’t always enough.
