Following this presentation, participants will be able to understand the difference between general Doctors of Optometry and Neuro-Developmental Optometrists, and how our philosophies of healthcare align with Osteopathic Doctors regarding structure and function being reciprocally inter-related.
Following this presentation, participants will be able to identify patients in their practices who may benefit from collaboration with a neuro-optometrist, addressing the "where" or "when" of vision, which allows patients to maintain their posture, walk straight down a hallway, and find the next word or next line of text when reading.
