What is Vision Education?
Vision education, or holistic vision improvement, is a growing field in the area of complementary healthcare. Vision educators help their students take charge of their own vision. They teach important information and effective techniques which develop healthy vision habits.
Vision students learn how to lessen their dependence on prescription lenses, reduce eyestrain, improve their eyesight, and prevent degenerative eye diseases. Many who practice holistic vision improvement discover a deeper connection to themselves, to others, and to nature. Natural vision improvement often requires and nurtures a greater sense of awareness in the moment, and can lead to personal growth, and improved overall health. It is a journey of exploration and discovery.
Vision educators teach an educational process; they do not diagnose or prescribe; they work with medical professionals who provide those services.
