About Us
The Bernstein Center specializes in the diagnosis of vision problems (Comprehensive Vision Evaluation) and provides Optometric Vision Therapy to improve these problems.
The Center serves the greater New York, Westchester County, Fairfield County, CT, and Northern New Jersey communities.
Together with our general optometry practice (Family Vision Care Associates, at the same location) we offer a complete range of eye examination and treatment services.
History
The Bernstein Center for Visual Performance (originally named the Center for Vision and Learning) was founded in January, 2000, by Drs. Ira and Paul Bernstein.
As the recognition of binocular vision deficits and their relation to learning/reading problems has gained broader awareness, the Bernstein Center was created to provide state-of-the-art diagnosis and treatment of these problems through vision therapy.
Led by behavioral optometrist Dr. Paul Bernstein (read more about Dr. Paul), the staff of the center (read more) provides a wide range of testing services for binocular vision dysfunction, delivers treatment and vision therapy sessions, and provides support and training for parents and family members to continue therapy sessions at home - when required.
