| | Types of Therapy |
| | Therapy is based on the belief that faulty thinking patterns and belief systems cause psychological problems and that changing our thoughts improves our mental and emotional health and results in changes in behavior. | | | The focus of therapy is to help individuals access more of their inner world (unconscious) and develop greater self-realization and individuation. | | | Common behavioral techniques include systematic desensitization (gradual exposure to an anxiety-provoking situation paired with relaxation), using reinforcements for desired behaviors, and aversion therapy to extinguish unwanted behaviors. |

| | RESULTS: Vision therapy was successful in 61.9% of patients who received in-office plus home therapy, in 30% of patients who received home therapy only, and in 10.5% of the control group. | | | After two sessions of therapy emphasizing peripheral fusion and divergence, the patient became kinesthetically aware of the eye turn and she was able to regain single vision with minimal effort. | | | This case illustrates that vision therapy can effectively relieve the symptoms of a patient with intermittent esotropia once the patient is able to gain active control of her visual system. |
