Safety Eyewear
One of the leading causes of emergency room visits are eye injuries from ball sports.
Our children's eyes are invaluable and they need to be treated with care.
All children playing ball sports should be required to wear safety sports frames to protect them against unnecessary and often avoidable eye injuries.
Dana Dean Optometry, The center for Vision Development has a large selection of boys and girls as well as teen frames to choose from. They are now designed as a sunglasses so you get the benefit of both. Please be sure to check out Dr. Dean's selection when you visit her office.

The Publisher's Weekly review included, " The medical profession has believed that the visual center of the brain can't rewire itself after a critical cutoff point in a child's development, but in her 40's, with the help of optometric vision therapy, Barry showed that previously neglected neurons could be nudged back into action.
The author tells a poignant story of her gradual discovery of the shapes of flowers in a vase, snowflakes falling, even the folds in coats hanging on a peg. After Barry's story was written up in the NEW Yorker by Oliver Saks, she heard from any others who had successfully learned to correct their vision as adults, challanging accepted wisdom about the plasticity of the brain. Recommended for all readers who cheer stories with a triumph over seemingly insuperable odds."
