Vision Therapy for Howard Beach Residents

From Howard Beach, take Cross Bay Boulevard south to Rockaway Turnpike, then continue into Inwood — approximately 14–16 minutes by car. Howard Beach does not have a direct rail connection to the Inwood LIRR station; driving is the most practical option for most patients. Street parking is available near our office at 148c Doughty Blvd.

Children from Howard Beach often present to our practice after complaints of headaches during homework, avoidance of reading, or difficulty concentrating that their pediatricians and teachers have attributed to attention issues. Convergence insufficiency — a binocular vision disorder where the eyes struggle to maintain focus on near targets — causes exactly these symptoms and is reliably treatable with vision therapy. Our comprehensive binocular vision evaluation screens for convergence insufficiency, accommodative dysfunction, and eye tracking disorders before any diagnosis is assumed.

For Howard Beach adults managing vision loss from macular degeneration or glaucoma, our low vision consultations focus on practical functional goals — reading, medication management, navigating familiar environments, and assessing driving timelines. Dr. Esther Moller prescribes the right optical aid for each patient's specific remaining vision and daily priorities. CBVH services are available for eligible New York State residents.
