Dr. Joel H. Warshowsky, a Roslyn practitioner for more than 25 years, will be lecturing at the Seventh International Congress of Behavioral Optometry (ICBO) in Birmingham, England this September.
He will be presenting a lecture on the Clinical Rationale of Prescribing Behavioral Prism Lenses. This lecture will establish a protocol for prescribing prism lenses for children and adults who suffer from visually related reading and learning disability as well as behavior problems that might arise when children become frustrated, not being able to read or learn appropriately.
“As part of a judicious program designed to treat visual dysfunction responsible for reading and learning problems, prism lenses along with other therapeutic lenses and vision therapy, remediation is not only attainable, it can positively change a child’s outlook in life, going from failure to success,” Warshowsky said.
