The way we see the world influences how we move, learn, and perform.
My Vision First is pushing the boundaries of vision care by combining functional vision therapy, neuro-optometric rehabilitation, and performance-based training into a holistic system designed to enhance both visual and cognitive function.
Led by Dr. Bryce Appelbaum, the clinic provides tailored solutions for athletes, professionals, and anyone seeking to optimize their brain-eye connection.
The My Vision First Philosophy
My Vision First was founded on the belief that lasting visual and cognitive performance begins with the brain-eye connection. While traditional optometry focuses on eyesight alone,
My Vision First integrates scientifically supported therapies into personalized programs. These programs address visual processing, neuroplasticity, and performance in everyday life, athletic activity, and post-injury recovery.
Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, My Vision First prioritizes personalization and patient experience, ensuring every program is tailored to individual needs and goals.
