What is Behavioural Optometry?
Behavioural Optometry takes a holistic approach to eye care, considering how your entire body interacts with your vision. Our optometrists are trained in Behavioural Optometry.
We look beyond just your eyes – assessing how you use vision to complete tasks, move through your environment, and function in everyday life.

Behavioural Optometry and Vision Therapy: What's the Difference?
Behavioural optometry assesses how your vision integrates with your body and movement, helping you complete tasks more effectively. We offer a comprehensive approach that blends these strategies to enhance not only how you see, but also how you function in your daily life.
Vision therapy uses this information and focuses on improving visual skills through structured exercises.
Precise Measurement for Comfort and Clarity
Behavioral optometry helps prevent vision problems, provides treatment for specific conditions, and strengthens essential visual skills for school, work, or sports. At Pezzimenti Nixon, we use this approach to address various needs, including:
- Children’s vision
- Sports vision
- Reading and learning, including the use of tinted lenses
- Workplace and computer comfort
- Certain diseases, conditions or injuries
