OT Potential Podcast | Occupational Therapy CEUs #120 Vision Remediation and OT with Alicia Reiser
We, at OT Potential, keep hearing stories of more and more OTs teaming up with optometrists to provide vision remediation interventions.
(Vision remediation focuses on retraining the eye and brain connection. This is in contrast to low vision therapy, which focuses on compensation and adapting the environment to maximize remaining vision.)
The need is clear: occupational therapy can provide needed interventions for those with diagnosed visual inefficiencies from such things as acquired brain injury, or even developmentally — but the number of OTs with this training is not keeping pace with the need.
But, what does it take to fill this gap?
On today’s 1 hour webinar we are lucky to have one OT, Alicia Reiser OTD, who has built a private practice around this need. We’ll learn about the special training she pursued, how she forged relationships with local ODs, and most importantly the difference she is able to make in the lives of her clients.
