Aquinas - Let us know how it goes at the pediatrician. VT is not as well known in Canada I think as it is in the US. Our ped. discouraged us from pursuing it.

However, DS has DCD. The pediatrician told me this means he will need more practice to learn motor skills. To me, the eye control is a motor skill and the VT is his practice.

Unfortunately, there are not a lot of places where we are that do office-based VT. The place we are going - some of the stuff feels flakey, but I still think he benefits from most of the exercises. We've only done 6 sessions so far - we'll re-evaluate after 12.

Also - it's expensive and not covered by insurance. I'm not even sure I can use it as a deduction at tax time. :-(
