Equipment management (inventory, pricing, checking out to patients.)
Generate reports to monitor patient progress and compliance.
Is it an alternative to traditional vision therapy?
No. This software was designed to help enhance and modernize a vision therapy practice rather than replace it. Our visual systems were designed to guide the movement of our whole body in real space. While there are some activities that are well-suited to the computer, we shouldn’t rely on it exclusively.
What’s with the weird name and logo?
Theia was the ancient Greek goddess of light and vision. The triple spiral logo is a triskelion, an ancient symbol that was used in Greece, but dates back to the neolithic era. It fits well with the visual process, which has three main purposes: perception of form, perception of space, and balance/body posture. It also fits well with vision as a dynamic and developed/learned ability, which is why we can improve it with vision therapy!
