| Sumario: | This paper will present a process approach to the treatment of vision dysfunctions with the use of lenses and vision therapy. The process approach views vision dysfunctions as syndromes, potentially impacting cognition, posture, balance, movement, speech-auditory, emotions, and feelings. Performance lenses can be prescribed for most daily activities. A set of office vision therapy activities is performed in free or real space, most often slowly, relying on feedback to create change. This process requires the trainer to plant questions for the patient to consider rather than informing them of what they should be seeing. Diaphragmatic breathing, "hanging onto space," and good posture are fundamental to each activity. Balance and movement are emphasized throughout the program.
