Success Stories
“Coralynn has always struggled with reading and reading comprehension. She has had headaches for years and spent a lot of time in tears at school. She even had a brain MRI when she was 7 years old. Dr. Betka was able to tell us exactly what was going on with Cora and how we could help her. We were set up with Kelsey, who was amazing..........Over the weeks I witnessed my kid go from dreading school, reading, and complaining of headaches and her "eyes hurting" to LOVING to read, and whizzing through school. She now reads above her grade level and is doing 7th grade math with no problems at all. I am more than impressed and incredibly thankful for Dr. Betka, Dr. Goldberg, and Kelsey. Thank you so much!

“When I started vision therapy it was hard to read, I got migraines, and I couldn't see the board. My Favorite thing about therapy was the games, noticing myself improving along the process. After vision therapy I barely have migraines and I am able to see things more clearly.”

“Before vision therapy I would always have to force myself to sleep during car rides or be the one driving or I would get violently ill. Post vision therapy I am able to read and work on my laptop. Even my parents are amazed that I don't feel the need to always sleep on long road trips. As an adult I thought this was something I would always have to live with. I was able to improve my depth perception through therapy and can now go on ladders, cross bridges, and go climbing without panic attacks. I also learned to relax my eyes so I no longer have splitting, vertigo-inducing migraines when reading or working on a computer for extended periods of time. Dr. Beta, Cherise, and their tight-knit team have been wonderful, and I can't thank them enough for my improved quality of life. Thank you!”

We were referred to vision therapy by our local eye doctor after visiting with her about his difficulties in school. Hayden was having issues with reading, test taking, spelling, and misidentifying letters (b,d's in reading and writing). There was a lot of frustration and tears when it came to doing homework and reading, as well as frequent headaches. After doing some research on vision therapy and places to go for vision therapy, we found Insight Vision Therapy. We met with Dr. Betka and upon completion of the initial evaluation and testing, were VERY surprised to hear how many different vision issues she found. To know that he had so much going on that was impacting his daily learning at school was eye opening, but we were pleased to hear that with vision therapy, life could get better for Hayden. We were set up with Erin as our vision therapist-she was wonderful. Erin and Hayden developed a great relationship, despite his not loving our long trips to Lincoln every 2 weeks. We started vision therapy in February and completed the program the end of October. Initially, Hayden did not notice any difference in his school work/reading/writing/studying/etc. but we as his parents noticed a difference about halfway through. Things were clicking for him and there was not the struggle as there previously was. It was about a month before he graduated vision therapy, he actually began sitting down to willingly read a book and enjoyed the story he read about (this was something he had not previously experienced before). Now, I'm not saying he will go grab a book on his own accord, but with prompting he is able and willing to read and enjoys what he is reading, which is such a step for him. Grades have improved, his stress and anxiety over school work has improved, and overall we have seen a much happier kid when it comes to everything related to school. We can't thank Dr. Betka and Erin enough for the difference they made in Hayden's life.

Our son is a twin, and the 4th of our 5 kids. We knew something was wrong with Grant from about 6-9 months of age. He wasn’t making eye contact and wasn’t reaching the milestones his twin sister or other siblings made. Our concerns seemed to fall on deaf ears until our pediatrician and preschool special education teacher suggested vision and occupational therapy. COVID lengthened our course of treatment but from kindergarten to 2nd grade, we’ve gone from not being able to identify letters (after repeated and numerous teaching attempts) to reading above grade level. We drove 332 miles round trip each time we came to a session, but we’d do it again to get the results. Thank you for all your help!

We are so thankful to have been referred to Dr. Betka and her team. When we started the program, we were skeptical but knew we were going to explore all options to help Kash. Dr. Betka was great at explaining where Kash was and how she could help him. She also helped us create a plan for the school to accommodate him. We can’t say enough great things about Kelsey. Kash is truly going to miss her and their weekly visits. She made him feel comfortable and let him be himself but also kept him on track. We are so thankful for this team. Kash’s handwriting has improved so much, and he is actually excited to read a book at his grade level. He thinks it’s great he can cross his eyes now too. But above all that this team helped Kash build his confidence over the last 30 weeks, which he needed so much. We will always be thankful for the tat at inSIGHT and are grateful to call them friends.

Vision Therapy has positively influenced my life in multiple ways. Before vision therapy, I had issues doing simple tasks, driving, and even making it through a full workday. I was not able to do normal things like I used to. After vision therapy, I feel like I have my normal life back. The inSIGHT team played a huge part in my turn-around and I can’t thank them enough. I recommend vision therapy to anyone in need, no matter your age.
