AD Symptoms requiring child psychologist or eye specialist

[ElmoWorld]

Hi GerberaDaisy,

I’d pm you, pls check your mailbox.
I only been to one so don’t know how to compare.

I think both are quite established players here with many followers.
Orthovision offers only private therapy sessions, I think. But IGard offers individual and group sessions.
The location is quite impt for me too as I hv to bring my child to their office for therapy everyday (5days a week) for 6 weeks, each time spending 30 to 40 mins there. It is easily close to 2 hrs if u plus travelling time and changing/preparation time.

Hi ElmoWorld


Many thanks for your reply!

I found this thread very informative but somehow the ‘eye sight’ info doesn’t match the title. Also, should this be in HEALTH?


It’ll be good if someone can kinda re-org this.

the eyesight info stem from the sharing that SID may be misdiagnosed as ADHD, so i reckon that it should remain in this thread.
have shifted to Health though. thanks for the headsup.

Hi ElmoWorld

I would like to find out which clinic did you go to and what did they do. Have sent you a pm. Thanks!

Dear mummies,


Recently I brought my child who has always been having visual issues to Zoran at orthovision. We started on his intensive 3 weeks therapies but do not find much progress. Neither are we impressed with their programs and vision therapist too. Unsure if we still want to continue him as his charges are skyrocket.

Any advice from mums here?

My son is still in the program. This is his 3rd week and is advised that he will need another 15 sessions. From what I observed is that he is more capable of spotting what he is looking for. In the past, he seems like not observing what is obvious, like looking out for us in the mall if he wanders away. I was told by Zoran during the assessment that for my son condition, it is likely he will need 2 x 3 weeks theraphy. I am not sure if you were given similar advise.

Hi Ktyong, we are still in our final week of his 3 weeks' intensive program. We'll see him nx wed to discuss his 'improvement' and hear his advice thereafter. Thr these 3 weeks, we are really not so impressed so still hesitating. The place is very far from our hse and charges are steep.

Hi gerberadaisy, 30 mins therapy session is $70 while consultation charges to see Zoran is $110. There is also a first time assessment we did that cost us $300. Hope this info is helpful. :please:
