Our DS is at his sixth week of VT and has shown a line of acuity improvement.
He wasn't WAY off from 20/20 and is now at 20/25; moving up a line of acuity from the start date.
His therapist said that they cannot guarantee he will reach 20/20.
I understand that every patient is different, but I'm wondering if it's possible that they are giving themselves an "out".
Don't get me wrong...I think so far the exercises are making a difference. (From what I can tell in improvement over the course.)
The reason I'm asking is because this is really a "blind item" for us. We are not vision experts and don't know if our son is receiving the best therapy offered.
DS started at 20/30. We were told today that some children with "lazy eye" begin therapy around 20/200 and they would consider 20/25 (DS' current level) a target to obtain.
Please share your experience with VT and what your child's therapist has said about reaching 20/20 acuity. Is it possible?
