You have decided to take the next step towards your vision recovery and want to begin our therapy suite of Vision Restoration Therapy (VRT) and NeuroEyeCoach but don’t know where to start?

Since VRT is a personalized therapy tailored for your vision deficit and adjusted every month by our NovaVision clinicians, we require a prescription and a visual field examination test from your doctor. You can obtain these from an optometrist, ophthalmologist or neuro-ophthalmologist, if you don’t currently have a doctor you can find one near you on our Physician Directory or let us help you find one.

The following information will outline the process and forms that must be filled out by you and your physician before commencing VRT and NeuroEyeCoach.

Patient Documents

You may have received either by email or mail or downloaded through our Resources page a packet of information about our therapies which also include the following patient forms:

   Candidate Information and Prescription Form

This form must be given to your doctor before you take the visual field test. There are three sections on this form, the first one is VRT Inclusion Criteria: It includes necessary information that will help us identify whether you are a candidate for VRT.

The second section is Therapy Optimization: On this section, your doctor will ask you for information related to your visual deficit, your health, living situation and your computer experience.

The last section is the Prescription: This section gathers your personal information and the doctors practice information as well.

 

   Eye Examination Form

This form should also be given to your doctor together with the Candidate Information and Prescription Form.

The information gathered from the Eye Examination Form and the Visual Field Test will assist our NovaVision clinicians to prepare and interpret your therapy regimen.

The HIPAA Release form must be signed and filled out by you (Patient or Legal Guardian). The  Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is a US law designed to provide privacy standards to protect patients’ medical records and other health information provided to health plans, doctors, hospitals and other health care providers.
