Concussion Recovery and Peak Visual Performance

In this episode with Dr. Bryce Appelbaum, you'll get to explore how hidden vision problems often masquerade as dyslexia, ADD, or ADHD—and how his vision therapy retrains the eye-brain connection to transform reading, focus, coordination, and even recovery from concussions. You'll also discover how his testing and training methods, from intensives to at-home programs, not only restore confidence in struggling readers like my wife Jessa but also sharpen performance for athletes and optimizers seeking a competitive edge.

Dr. Bryce Appelbaum is a board-certified neuro-optometrist and recognized leader in vision therapy, specializing in retraining the eye-brain connection to unlock human potential.

His work goes beyond restoring function—he equips individuals with the visual tools to read, learn, and focus with confidence.

Dr. Appelbaum has also become a sought-after expert in performance vision training, working with hundreds of professional and Olympic athletes in the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, MLS, and more. From golfers, tennis players, and race car drivers to Olympic fencers, swimmers, and archers, he has helped transform raw talent into elite performance by enhancing reaction time, depth perception, and visual coordination. He even consults with teams on draft and free-agent decisions by evaluating athletes’ visual potential.

Featured in The New York Post, The New York Times Magazine, and on CBS, NBC, and MindBodyGreen, Dr. Appelbaumwas named the 2022 Future of Health Award recipient at the Mindshare Leadership Summit.
